I can think of more countries where the currency has devalued.

Germany after
WW1 comes to mind.


Korea, Japan, even the USA has had several overt devaluations.

"Turn in your old money for this new money. Ten cents on the dollar.
And the old money is no longer legal tender after tomorrow."

Or the old "turn in your gold coins" scam.

Or they just sneak it in via "inflation."

Wonder if the primitive cultures had devaluation? "Yesterday the

price was
two banannas and an oog, but today it's gone up one bananna and two

oogs".

How much is that in seashells? Wonder how many seashells Warren Buffet
is worth? Wonder if Warren is related to Jimmy?
