The Story of the 'B'-Pengos:
The banknote's denomination can be quite confusing.
It is '100,000 b-pengo', which means it is 100,000 x 1 (b) billion pengo,
which equals to 100 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.
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 in this almost uncirculated condition.
They are also difficult to find in unfolded condition, as these were larger than the
previous, non inflationary pengo banknotes, and since they did not fit in to most Hungarian
wallets, they were immediately folded upon receipt.
