Silver versus Zimbabwe Dollar Display

Zimbabwe Dollar for Sale

The Zimbabwean dollar hyperinflation of 2008 - 2009 is just the most recent example of an irresponsible government destroying its currency. In truth, no fiat currency has ever survived long term. This beautiful frame highlights the risks associated with saving in paper money as well as the essential nature of precious metal as a store of value. It can never become worthless. Therefore the hyperinflation led to the collapse of  Zimbabwe's currency is something we should never forget. 

Each frame contains a genuine silver American Eagle containing 1 troy ounce of .999 fine silver bullion, as well as an authentic 100 Million Zimbabwe dollar banknote. Each note actually circulated before becoming completely worthless as a medium of exchange and gathered to be sold as a novelty. The lustrous pure silver bullion coin is contrasted against the ridiculous Zimbabwe bill and the essential question is posed - Which Has Real Value?

The frame is beautifully etched with an image of an impoverished Zimbabwean pushing a wheelbarrow loaded with near-worthless cash, as well as timely and relevant quotes:

"Gold is the money of kings; silver is the money of gentlemen; barter is the money of peasants; but debt is the money of slaves." ~Norm Franz

"At the end, fiat money returns to its inner value - zero." ~Voltaire

There is simply no better way to highlight the reasons to own tangible gold and silver bullion coins and bullion bars rather than relying on paper money, because a currency crisis can happen in any country where currency is not tied to precious metals. A Zimbabwe frame is a fantastic gift for anyone who appreciates sound money. Give one for any occasion and spread the message!
