<p>[QUOTE=&quot;eddiespin, post: 2271255, member: 4920&quot;]That&#039;s one fascinating question, I have to tell you. Let me start by proposing to you a cut-off. I have a 100,000 Ruble note from Azerbaijan, dated 1922, right after the 1917 Soviet Revolution, Lenin, and that whole gang. In 1922, that note couldn&#039;t buy you a sack of potatoes, much less a bottle of Vodka. Today, 100,000 Rubles will buy you a block of houses in that country. But not this 100,000 Rubles. Runaway inflation, hard economic times. Governments make adjustments and reorganize for it. They even go so far as to declare the currency and coin not legal tender, anymore. Mexico is a fine recent example of that.</p><p><br /></p><p>That said, what country has the oldest coin that&#039;s still legal tender in that economy at its face value? My answer is simple. I have no freaking idea!!! But, it&#039;s a fascinating question. Hope this helps, lol. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
