| Opmerkingen |
The Russian State Bank's 1918 high-denomination issues emerged from genuine institutional collapse. By mid-1918, the Bolshevik government was printing at extraordinary volume to cover expenditures it could not fund by taxation or borrowing — the 10,000 Rouble note was a direct consequence of inflation that had been accelerating since 1916 and went essentially unchecked after the October Revolution. The State Bank itself was nationalized in December 1917, reducing it to a printing arm of the new government rather than a functioning central bank.
The series was printed domestically, as pre-war reliance on foreign printers — particularly the American Bank Note Company for earlier Imperial issues — had become impossible under wartime and then revolutionary conditions.
