<p>[QUOTE="rosethe, post: 4706104, member: 21556"]My Father passed in 2001 as well. It was traded for new notes. I travelled a lot in the 90's and used T-lira paper money in Turkey. It was so difficult to figure out what was going on, they devalued so often.I would come back months or a couple years later and the money in my wallet was no good. I would literally have to count zeros on the notes so I wouldn't inadvertently give a billion lira note out for an ice cream (when it only cost one hundred million- lol) . Many countries, such as Italy and Mexico routinely did this. Mexico would just lop off some zeros off their money and suddenly the 50,000 peso note was considered 50 pesos.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
