UNITED STATES: American football coach, Deion Sanders, was recently on an emotional book promotion tour.

The last leg of the tour finale saw him visit the Macky Auditorium at the University of Colorado Boulder. And it was here that Coach Prime has earned an extravagant act of generosity from Zimbabwe.

The YouTube channel Reach The People Media captured every bit of the tour. In the latest video, Deion Sanders is seen engaging in interaction with fans at Boulder without having any hint of what was awaiting him — a staggering 100 billion Zimbabwean dollar bill.

The fan who gifted him this unique present turned to the camera and said, “This is from Zimbabwe. It’s a 100 billion dollars, and I guess they have trillion dollar notes as well, but it’s a real note.”

On questioning the purpose of the note, the fan shared, “I’m going to give it to Coach Prime to pay for his parking tickets to CU. That’s why I’m giving it to Coach Prime.” 

Well, if you’re surprised by the 100 billion dollar bill, there is an explanation.

Due to hyperinflation, Zimbabwe had to introduce a 100 billion dollar bill, over a decade ago. The bill’s value has diminished due to inflation and is now seen as a novelty.

The Zimbabwean dollar isn’t globally recognized but converting it using the current exchange rate would be $310 million USD.
