The Zimbabwean notes have a big advantage over the old Hungarian and Weimar Germany notes because they are 1) Plentiful and cheap in high grades and 2) They're in English, which is just going to make them inherently more approachable than most other hyperinflation notes, like Yugoslavian notes or even Venezuelan notes.

Hey, I have Yugoslav notes, I guess I have Zim notes too but no Ven notes. 

I suppose you're right on some level with the English text on the Zim notes but it never occurred to me until I read this that my Zim notes were in English and my Yugoslav notes were in... Serbo-Croatian.? I honestly don't know, now I'm going to have to research this. 

Long story short, the artwork/design, history and/or story behind the notes was the reason I purchased these..... and free shipping.

Uh huh.... The artwork only got you into the new series a long time after the free shipping and my yapping got you into 2 other series / sub-sets. And in spite of your claims of loving the first dollars I notice those don't seem to be happening without free shipping as a booster to buy a note.

 Busted. The first series is the most attractive, followed closely by the current series. My lack of first series notes is due to several factors, eventually I'll give them a go, but not for a few years at the earliest. Or at least that's my tentative timeline, who knows.
