Historically significant collection of original pre-World War II Soviet financial history: a complete multi-denomination set of 4 State Loan Bonds from the Third Five-Year Plan (Государственный заем Третьей пятилетки / Выпуск третьего года), officially authorized and issued in 1940.

These museum-quality security documents were issued by the Soviet government to fund massive heavy industrialization and infrastructure projects just before the outbreak of the Great Patriotic War. Each bond features highly complex baroque security frames, crisp geometric guilloche meshes, the early State Emblem of the USSR, and beautiful multi-republic linguistic panels at the bottom.

  • Year of Issue: 1940 (Pre-WWII Soviet Industrialization Era)
  • Series: Third Five-Year Plan / Third Year Issue (Беспроигрышный выпуск)
