<p>[QUOTE="Troodon, post: 543751, member: 4626"]I'm sure a lot of Zimbabweans are doing precisely that, realizing that the collector's value far exceeds the actual buying power of these notes. (A lot of eBay sellers of these notes have locations listed as Zimbabwe or some African country near Zimbabwe.) However, the novelty value seems reserved for the highest denomination (or at least most recent series); whenever Zimbabwe has put out a new series, selling prices on eBay for older series drops sharply.</p><p><br /></p><p>Zimbabwe's on their 4th dollar now (1 4th Zimbabwe dollar = 1 quadrillion 3rd Zimbabwe dollars, giving these two notes technically the same nominal denomination!) but haven't issued any notes denominated in the 4th dollar yet. As they've not really taken significant steps to actually curb the root causes of inflation, expect the new series to get huge denominations as well pretty quickly. Might even break the 14 zero record![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
