Appearance

Twenty-rouble assignat of 1822 on reddish paper, a colour trial that was never issued. The design is the same as the green trial: the "Masonic" arms, the text of the promise, the back a dark oval with the figure 20.

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
