Last week I shared the brief history of the circulation and use of a currency created by a missionary Bible school teacher at Bafuka.  I called it the Z-bill because Bob Zimmerman designed and printed the purple paper money to use in that remote part of Zaire while awaiting the distribution of the new currency as ordered by Mobutu.

It wasn’t really counterfeit money because the creator did not copy an existing currency for his personal profit to take advantage of an ignorant people.
