Hilarious - in Argentina (my second home) they mistakenly printed $100 bills where they cut the 1 off. So they show ''00" instead,
Because of the ~25% yearly inflation the $100 bills are in such high demand so they decided to distribute them anyways and are still considered 'legal tender'.
The 100 Pesos bill is the highest denomination of Argentine paper money and with inflation running at an annualized ‘in the range of 25%’ it is not surprising the urgency to have the bills in the streets.
The error in the bills emerged from the fact they were wrongly clipped on one side, cutting off the centennial and leaving the zeroes.
I see the bills still have "100" on one side so they're not completely jokes, but still pretty funny, and just another sign of what happens when your country has crazy inflation incurring.
