A visually striking and highly desirable piece of early Soviet monetary history: an original 25,000 Rubles Raschetny Znak (Расчетный знак РСФСР), issued in 1921 during the chaotic and hyperinflationary period following the Russian Revolution and during the final stages of the Civil War.
This large-format banknote features incredible, dense background patterns completely filled with micro-printed "25000" numerals to prevent counterfeiting. The face showcases ornate early Soviet typography, the official RSFSR references, and authentic signatures of the People's Commissar of Finance (Народный комиссар финансов), Nikolai Krestinsky, and the cashier.
