Special facts
The “gold” notes were part of Commissar Sokolnikov’s reform: by the summer of 1924 the sovznaks had left circulation, leaving only stable money in the country.
Appearance
Both sides are printed in black over a yellow, blue-green and red underprint. On the front are the USSR arms at top centre, the value over a sheaf of wheat and a guilloché, and the signatures below. On the back the value sits over a guilloché in the centre, surrounded by the value in words in six languages, with the date at the bottom. The watermark comes in two kinds — narrow (55 mm) and wide (65 mm), each with its own range of serial numbers. Size 155 × 82 mm.
