If we abolished currency, and created a society based on Anarcho-Communism, how would individuals trade internationally with people in foreign countries? How would this happen without a solid currency?

On the basis of reciprocal gifts.

The abolition of money and markets is the goal of Marxism and anarchism. The utilization of the raw materials, manufacturing capacity, agricultural output, etc of the world for the purpose of fulfilling human want and need for everyone is the ultimate outcome. The efficient basis for trade and manufacturing (as well as invention, etc) laid by capitalism will be the 'prize' of an international communist (anarchist, Marxist, etc) revolution of the working class.

If certain areas of the Earth are most conducive to agricultural output and are the 'breadbaskets' of the world (as the midwest in the US and parts of Eastern Europe etc are) why would they need to 'trade' or 'sell' their output if we have abolished capitalism and class society as a whole?
