I like that they never lost their gusto with the designs of the bills lol

Like they had to know that their currency was basically dead, yet they still made sure that those 100 billion Mark notes looked classy as fuck.

If/when the modern US makes it to this point, I can't imagine them putting all that much effort into making our $100 billion dollar bills look cool.

They'll probably have fucking Steve Bannon's face on them.

The person designing them had to make them pretty because they knew they were going to be paid in them
