A 'Very Fine' condition is note that has been in circulation, but not
actively or for long. It still retains some crispness and is still choice enough in its condition to
be altogether desirable. It may show folds
or creases, or some light smudges from the hands of a past generation.
Sometimes, Very Fine notes are the best available in certain
rare issues, and they should accordingly be cherished just as much as uncirculated notes.
These banknotes had been in circulation only for a few weeks during the summer of
1946 after World War 2, and are very difficult to find.
The Story behind this banknote's denomination:
The banknote's denomination is rather confusing.
It is '10,000 b-pengo', which means it is 10,000 x 1 (b) billion pengo,
which equals to 10 trillion. But, since the Hungarian population at the time
was unable to comprehend such colossal numbers, it was only the letter 'b'
that was placed in front of the pengo, to make it easier for them.
Anyway, since these hyper-inflationary banknotes
were printed in ever greater numbers and variety in the cold and hungry months of 1946,
the population was usually only able to
identify them
by their color.
They were called, the red, the pink, the purple, the brown, etc.
