Own a fascinating artifact of Hungary's economic past with this 10,000 Pengő banknote featuring a historic tax validation overprint. The front features the elegant, neoclassical portrait of an aristocratic woman framed by intricate, winding guilloché rosettes. Tracing the escalating stages of the post-WWII Hungarian financial collapse—this bill showcases the temporary fiscal strategy implemented to combat hyperinflation before the currency completely vanished. In the post-war chaos, the treasury mandated an urgent capital levy where higher-denomination banknotes had to be physically overstamped to maintain their value.
