Neither inverse can be expressed exactly, so it's not at all surprising that a limited precision inverse will deliver slightly different results.

1/4148 also repeats but only after about the 240th decimal place.

Not quite.

1/4148 = .000241080038573

but

1/.000239 = 4184.100418410041841

(which appears to be a repeating number)

Possibly, there are two transactions that day with one having transposed digits (4148 vs. 4184) in the transfer amount that was entered directly rather than looked up online.

I would suspect that confirming the actual ratio that day and re-entering one or both transactions will resolve the situation to a single conversion rate for the day.

They appear to be the inverse of each other (1 USD = 4148 COP, 1 COP = 0.000239 USD), which is what you'd expect.

In looking at my Price Database for Currencies,
I see that the conversion rate for a pair appears twice
for the same date.
Under COP there is a USD entry for June 30 of 0.000239
Under USD there is a COP entry for June 30 of 4148
So, which one is used for reports?
Is this going to cause issues?

In looking at other values, I see that most of them in both
COP and USD came from Finance::Quote, but at different dates.

There are a few user:price-editor entries.

I am running Fedora Linux 37 and Gnucash 4.14
