Description: Hungary 10,000 B-PENGO (10 Quadrillion) inflation banknote VF 1946 P-132 Very Fine condition Condition:We follow the grading standard of the Standard Catalogue of United States Paper Money grading standard: A 'Very Fine' condition is note that has been in circulation, but notactively or for long. It still retains some crispness and is still choice enough in its condition to be altogether desirable. It may show folds or creases, or some light smudges from the hands of a past generation. Sometimes, Very Fine notes are the best available in certainrare issues, and they should accordingly be cherished just as much as uncirculated notes. These banknotes had been in circulation only for a few weeks during the summer of 1946 after World War 2, and are very difficult to find. The Story behind this banknote's denomination: The banknote's denomination is rather confusing. It is '10,000 b-pengo', which means it is 10,000 x 1 (b) billion pengo, which equals to 10 trillion. But, since the Hungarian population at the timewas unable to comprehend such colossal numbers, it was only the letter 'b'that was placed in front of the pengo, to make it easier for them. Anyway, since these hyper-inflationary banknotes were printed in ever greater numbers and variety in the cold and hungry months of 1946, the population was usually only able to identify them by their color. They were called, the red, the pink, the purple, the brown, etc. SHIPPING: Tracking will be provided!
