Gem Uncirculated (Gem65): A note that is flawless, with the same freshness, crispness and bright color as when first printed. It must be free of any marks, blemishes or traces of handling.
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 uncirculated condition.
The Story behind this banknote:
The banknote's denomination is indeed quite confusing.
It is '100,000,000 b-pengo', which means it is 100,000,000 x 1 (b) billion pengo,
which equals to 100 Quintillion. 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', 'the blue', etc.
