The 100 Quintillion Banknote 💸💸💸💸

As you may have noticed from my posts, I may love buying silver but I also love getting myself the occasional monetary oddity, like for example these plastic coins from Transnistria I got like a month ago.

So I was doing some googling and came across something really fun and interesting 😆😂

I always thought that the 100 trillion dollar bill from Zimbabwe was the highest denomination bill ever issued. Here's how it looks like in case you have never heard of it before

Sidenote, I have yet to score one but I have the second biggest banknote from the same country. 500 millions Zimbabwean dollars😂

Here's a quick photo I just took, along with a 100 billion dracmai bill from post world war 2 Greece. Needless to say, both of them were minted in times of super mega high inflation and they were probably worth less then their weight in....toilet paper:

And in case you wonder, here's how 100 trillions is spelled in...numbers

100,000,000,000,000

Yeah... That's a lot of zeroes and at that point it really shows how shitty and impractical the Zimbabwean currency had become.

But!

Turns out the biggest denomination bill ever issued was the 100 million billion pengo. Or... The 100 quintillion pengo. Lmao 😂

Here's how many zeroes that is

100,000,000,000,000,000,000

(via Wikipedia, public domain)

This bill lasted for only 20 days before it was withdrawn and it was only worth about 0.2 $ 😆😂

The 100 million b.‑pengő banknote is a note that was printed by the Republic of Hungary in 1946, during a period of massive hyperinflation. Produced in Budapest by the Hungarian Banknote Printing Corporation under the authority of the Hungarian National Bank (MNB) on June 3, the note was first issued to the public on July 11 and then withdrawn twenty days later, on July 31, due to the introduction of a new forint currency. source

Interestingly, there was an even bigger denomination bill issued that was never put into official use. The one sextillion pengo:

Heres how many zeros a sextillion has by the way

1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

Unfortunately, I don't see myself buying any of these super cool pengo notes. I did some googling and they seem to be super expensive, like a minimum of 50 $ per piece or something. Thanks but no thanks 😆

Uffffffff, all those zeroes made me super dizzy. Good thing all these super inflationary bank notes are a thing of the past...
