I suppose this question is about a Moebius strip embedded in R^3 as a polyhedron (a union of planar triangles that can intersect pairwise in only an edge, a vertex, or the empty set. Yes? —Dan P.S. Please note correct spelling of Moebius (unless you can use an umlaut).

In a similar vein we can ask, What's the smallest possible number of faces a Mobius strip can have? You are permitted to use a rectangle of any aspect ratio you like.
