[QUOTE="Loong Siew, post: 2263863, member: 75799"]Hungarian pengo 1946. After the war, Hungary suffered a extreme period of hyperinflation. Such was it's severity that their incumbent pengo of that time literallh became worthless. The highest denomination they ever issued was the Egymillard B pengo which was a thousand million billion (hence the B). However these quickly became pattern as they did not end up in circulation. The largest in circulation was their Szamilliard B pengo which was a hundred million billion pengo. A point to note is that the European Billion is actually a million million instead of a thousand million as in the American equivalent. Thousand million billion pengo. This is 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 [ATTACH=full]449694[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]449695[/ATTACH] Hundred million billion pengo. This is 100,000,000,000,000,000,000.[ATTACH=full]449696[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]449697[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
