Hi friends,

I am trying to put together a complete collection of the Hungarian hyperinflation pengos, but there is one note that I have been unable to find (despite it being listed in the catalogue), which makes me think that catalog might have an error.

The variant is the 1945 Green 100,000 Pengo with a stamp affixed (P-121b). This is not the much rare blue 100,000 Pengo, for which I have seen both variants (i.e., with and without stamp). This Green pengo note I have only ever seen without a stamp, despite the catalogue listing that there is a variant with the stamp.

I haven't been able to find even an image of this variant (green 100,000 pengo with stamp), which makes me think the catalogue may be mistaken in listing it (or incorrect in valuing this variant as extremely common - $2 in UNC). Even banknote.ws doesn't have an image of it http://www.banknote.ws/COLLECTION/c.../HUN0121.htm

Does anyone have more information on this?

It is a lot more scarce than most think - it is missing from most collections good luck finding it.
