<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Neal, post: 24681316, member: 43872&quot;]This note appears to have been issued in April of 1945, at the end of WWII, at the beginning of a period of hyperinflation.&nbsp; Before the war, it took about 5 pengos to equal a dollar.&nbsp; By August 31, 1945, it took 1320.&nbsp; By the time the last pengos were issued in July of 1946, it took 460,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 pengos to equal one US dollar.&nbsp; So your note would not have been worth much when issued.&nbsp; Source: Wikipedia, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_peng%C5%91" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_peng%C5%91" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hungarian_pengő</a>.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
