1991/1992 USSR Russian 1000 Rubles Soviet Cold War Banknote Currency Money CCCP

Description: USSR Currency 1000 Ruble Note Series 1991/92 Cold War Era authentic Soviet Union one thousand ruble note, depicting the father of the Bolshevik Party, and the leader of the October Revolution of 1917, Vladimir Lenin. The banknotes are from the 1991/92 series, the "Pavlov Reform," and were issued just prior to the collapse of the Soviet Union. Without warning, in January of 1991 all existing 1961 Khrushchev era 50 and 100 ruble bills (see my other items) were declared worthless and were withdrawn from circulation. In addition to replacing those denominations, new ones in 200, 500 and 1000 rubles were issued. Presented as a means to root out forgeries, ill-gotten-gains, tax cheats and mobsters, the reform was in reality a revaluation of the ruble. The measures proved to be too little, and too late, to save the currency and instead became another cause of the dissolution of the USSR. The authentic hand selected banknotes are in Good circulated (used) condition. Conditions sound. Notes: paper solid; no big rips, seps, fold cracks, and no funky aroma. Will have slight edge wear, occasional staple hole, and other signs of use; may show creases and folds; minor surface dirt, notations, and/or small stains; Details clear. Examples are pictured above. Good for students, educators, collectors. Great at flea markets, swap meets, and rummage sales. Makes a nice gift pack for the old cold warrior, or history buff in your life!
