Special facts

Twenty-five thousand rubles was a value unthinkable in tsarist Russia: the largest note of the empire had been five hundred rubles.

Series, cashiers and factories

The first denomination of the second 1921 issue. There are ten cashiers. The note was printed at three Goznak factories: the Rostov factory printed series АВ and АЭ, the Ural (Perm) factory АП and ББ, and the First Moscow factory АЖ, АЛ, АУ, АЧ, БЕ, БК; each block accounted for 1 million notes.

Watermarks and numbering errors

The paper occurs in two varieties: with large six-pointed stars (Pick 115a, all three factories) and with small ones (115b, part of the Perm series only). Two signature mix-ups are known: blocks АВ-146 and АВ-149 have their cashier signatures swapped, and block АЧ-102 was issued with a number outside the regular "+3" sequence.

Appearance

At the centre of the obverse is the inscription «РАСЧЕТНЫЙ ЗНАК РОССИЙСКОЙ СОЦИАЛИСТИЧЕСКОЙ ФЕДЕРАТИВНОЙ СОВЕТСКОЙ РЕСПУБЛИКИ», the value, the signatures of the People's Commissar of Finance and a cashier, and the block number. The reverse shows the value '25000' at the centre. The printing is brown. The note measures 163 × 88 mm.

About the period

The settlement notes of 1920–1921 were the last money of the RSFSR before the redenomination of 1922. In two years the denominations grew from 3 to 100,000 roubles. More about the period “Settlement notes”, 1920 — 1921
