Special facts
In 1839 a silver ruble cost three and a half assignat rubles, so a ten-ruble note was worth less than three silver rubles.
Appearance
Ten-rouble assignat of the 1818–1819 pattern on reddish paper, as with the earlier tens; copies on white paper are known (possibly trials or forgeries). A rectangular frame of 148 × 110 mm, with "1819" and "ГОДА" in the lower dark octagons. At the top the "Masonic" arms, with the figure 10 in a circle under them. The back is a dark rectangle with the word "ДЕСЯТЬ". Dated every year up to 1843.
About the period
The assignats of the 1818–1819 pattern were the first Russian paper money printed at the Expedition for the Preparation of State Papers. The printing became much better, and the notes harder to forge. More about the period “Assignats”, 1818 — 1843
