Special facts

The Pyatakov notes were printed from plates ordered by the Provisional Government, which is why they show neither hammer nor sickle.

Blocks and cashiers

Every note carries two signatures: Chief Commissioner of the People's Bank G. Pyatakov (the same on all) and one of ten cashiers. The cashier is fixed by the last digit of the block number. 400 blocks were planned (АА-001…АА-200 and АБ-201…АБ-400) but only 233 were issued: АА-001…АА-200 and АБ-201…АБ-233, 1,000,000 notes per block — 233,000,000 in total.
