New roll from Hungary

Jerry Winslow got this roll while on a trip to Budapest, Hungary  He went to a local hardware store and the clerk signed it. Cost was 1500 Ft. That's Forints the currency of the country. It takes 3 Forints to equal 1 U.S. penny. So the cost was about $5.00 The cost of everything is marked in Ft.'s so the numbers are pretty big. If you went to the Apple Store to buy a new $1600.00 Mac the price tag would show 480,000 Ft on it! There money has a lot of zeros on it. Will get Jerry his Duct Tape coin soon.

If you want to see the list of countries I have rolls from click on ducttape2thefuturelist.blogspot then try to get a roll from a new country for the collection and I send you a Duct Tape coin.
