If you ever wondered what Zimbabwe Currency or 100 Trillion Dollars is, you have come to the right place. Zimbabwe experienced a period of hyperinflation starting in the 90's and culminated at its peak in 2008 with the introduction of the 100,000,000,000,000 banknote! Currency in Zimbabwe was so devalued that you needed a big stack of high denomination bills to buy a loaf of bread!

The Zimbabwean Dollar was established to replace Rhodesian Dollar and to signify the nation’s independence from the UK in 1980. It was redenominated 3 times until its eventual collapse in 2009 due to hyperinflation caused by unregulated printing of money, the land reform program, and government involvement in the Second Congo War. Today, Zimbabwe has a multi-currency economic system set in place where money from around the world has become legal tender.

On the obverse of the 100 trillion Zimbabwe Dollar we can see the famous Chiremba Balancing rocks from Epworth, a Harare Province. These rocks are said to represent the delicate balance between man and nature. This banknote also has a hidden a watermark that displays a complete denomination when held up to a light source.

The letters RBZ repeat along the left side of the banknote and are printed in gold color shifting ink. Lastly, we can see an under print of a cow with grains and a color shifting security ink featuring the country’s official emblem, the Zimbabwe Bird.

The reverse of the banknote features Victoria falls and a cape buffalo. Victoria Falls, or known by the locals as the Smoke that Thunders, was named in honor of Queen Victoria by David Livingstone in the mid-1800’s.On certain months, the river’s current becomes low enough that visitors can swim near the edge on what has been dubbed “the Devil’s Pool”.

The cape buffalo is an African bovine that can reach a length of 10 feet, height of 5 feet and weigh almost a ton! The cape buffalo is infamous for attacking hunters and reports claim that they kill or injure more hunters than any other animal in Africa!
