Obama Dollars Mk. I ????




Friend sent me a most modern prototype for my currencies collection, as I have some from my travels that actually have 1 Dollar marked on them as well as some in the thousands and I've literally wiped me bum with (some of them in rather larger denominations) as it was cheaper than proper toilet rolls. The native population has taken them to use for building cook fires.

Hadn't gotten one of these yet. One of these plus Two Euros or Three US Dollars will buy you one good Belgian beer in the less fancy places in Harare. Otherwise, it's currently worth 0.00269259USD for the curious among y'all. (Yes, I know Mugabe has had them take 12 zeroes off and repeg it to 1 Mugabe Buck to 370-ish USD but we also know that it won't last more than a short while before he's back to printing notes like these again. It's all he knows.

Obanana---Bringing the African experience to you without the 22-40 hour air flights!

Wonder if our coming version will have Niagara Falls and a Bison or something on the back. Zim engraving quality has gone down but still pretty money, if worthless. We should at least do the same.
