Zimbabwe 5 Billion Dollars 2008 P-84 Error PMG 30

Zimbabwean 5,000,000,000 dollar banknote, issued in 2008 by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe during the hyperinflationary period. Pick 84, PMG-certified grade 30: circulated, with folds and wear from use, and also listed as a specimen with a printing error.

Obverse: Chiremba Balancing Rocks in Epworth, with stylized grain motifs and a cow in the background pattern, and the Zimbabwe Bird in optically variable ink. Reverse: an agricultural scene with a farmer plowing the field with a tractor and workers milking cows, alluding to the country's agricultural activity.

Banknotes with manufacturing errors from this Zimbabwean hyperinflationary period generate additional interest among collectors, as they add the rarity of the error to the historical appeal of one of the most severe hyperinflations of the 21st century.
