Is there anywhere you can buy Zimbabwean dollars?
I obviously know that within a few months it will be worth a lot less than what I paid for it, but I really want a $100,000,000,000 banknote.
Are there any reliable places you can buy one on the internet?

Who cares? It's a novelty thing, not an investment.
I just want to be all 'oh hey, check out this $100,000,000,000 banknote'.

I'm pretty sure hyperinflationary German banknotes are worth a fair pile of coin, especially the later models. I see no reason why Zimbabwean notes won't appreciate in value once the current toilet-paper currency is scrapped.

Think a bank might get it in? it wouldn't be something they'd usually have (obviously) but they might be able to acquire one?

Because Zimbabwe is in a state of chaos. They don't even use their money, they just fight.

It's worth about 330 000 US dollars right now, so that might fuck you over in the long run, what with the massive rapid inflation.

$100,00,000,000 ZWD = $32288.58 USD today.
other sites I've checked say the same. Show me your source.

According to CNN it's worth just a dollar:
http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/africa...tes/index.html
I'm guessing with the absurd amount of inflation going on, most of those online calculators haven't been updated in quite a while. Or maybe it's just that noone really knows the real value.
Regardless, I've got a zimbabwean guy on msn right now who's prepared to sell me several of these $100bn notes for $5 USD a piece, which would be moronic if the exchange rate is what your sources claim.

Well, I bet a lot of people want to buy the 1 cent note, and a 100 billion note, put them next to each other in a frame and hang it on the wall.

In that case, you're better off printing a bank note yourself. We're talking about a currency from a country who got a 2.2 million % inflation. I mean, that'd be cheaper for them to make a bonfire with bank notes than use them to buy wood for it.
