Five hundred billion dinars. Do you have change for this?

UPDATE: This is now for sale, along with others, at my new site, Big Banknotes.
Five hundred billion dinars. Yugoslavia, 1993.

This note once held the dubious honor of being that with the largest number of zeros — eleven! — ever placed into circulation. Lately, though, Robert Mugabe’s wholesale robbery of the population of Zimbabwe has beat the record, with notes in the hundreds of trillions (yes, including printed zeros) being issued.
I have a few of these for sale. They’re collector’s items, and the perfect gift for your economics teacher or the uppity Austrian economist in your family. US$15 will get you one, shipped anywhere in the world at no additional charge. If you’re interested, please contact me by email. You may not receive the serial number or exact note pictured. All are in XF/EF condition, which means very lightly circulated with small corner bending and minimal very light creasing.

A woman who sells advertising in a local phone directory that I met last year went to Zimbabwe. She showed me a picture of he sitting on a couch surrounding by “money”, errr… “a bunch of paper with fancy stamps and ink” would be a better definition. She said in the couple of weeks she was there the price of bread doubled (or was it tripled?). All the money she was sitting next to was virtually worthless. She needed all of it to purchase anything.
Out of curiousity, I assume those notes are no longer legal tender in any of the republics of the former Yugoslavia? If they are, what could it possibly be worth today?
