| Comments |
Mongolia's 1955 series was produced at Goznak in Moscow, a reflection of the tight Soviet-Mongolian economic relationship of the period — the Mongolian People's Republic had essentially no domestic security printing infrastructure, and all high-denomination notes of this era were manufactured in the USSR. The design credits to Shi-bu and D. Amgalan are unusual in that named Mongolian designers are rarely documented on notes of this generation; most Soviet-bloc client-state issues went uncredited on the Mongolian side.
The 1955 series replaced the 1941 and 1945 issues as part of a broader monetary reorganization following Stalin's death and the loosening of certain Soviet economic directives across satellite states.
