Special facts

The five-hundred-ruble Pyatakov note continued the value of the “petenkas”, but instead of Peter I it shows only ornament and a crownless eagle.

Blocks and cashiers

Every note carries two signatures: Chief Commissioner of the People's Bank G. Pyatakov (the same on all) and a cashier. In series АА and АБ the cashier is fixed by the last digit of the block number (in АБ blocks АБ-009 and АБ-010 are separate varieties). The note was printed in three places: series АА in Penza, АБ in Moscow, АГ in Perm. Series АГ consists of fourteen blocks (АГ-601…АГ-614), each a separate variety: АГ-601…АГ-610 have a horizontal watermark, АГ-611…АГ-614 a vertical one, and block АГ-608 carries the signature of cashier N. Lavrovskiy, who does not appear on other blocks. 127 blocks were issued in all: АА-001…АА-095, АБ-001…АБ-018 and АГ-601…АГ-614, 1,000,000 notes per block.
