Reply to comment by dethb0y in TIL about Operation Bernhard. During WWII, Germany attempted to bring about the collapse of the British economy by forging ≈£130 million in British bank notes. The notes are considered among the most perfect counterfeits ever produced, and are very difficult to differentiate from legitimate notes. by rkadeYT

The article says the estimate of notes counterfeited is between £132 to £300 million; and another comment in this thread says that the plan was to print £300 billion.
