Comments

The 1925 Mongolian tugrik series — this note among them — was issued just months after the Mongolian People's Republic formally replaced the Chinese-era currency with a national monetary system built from scratch. Goznak in Moscow handled the printing, which was a natural arrangement given Soviet involvement in restructuring the Mongolian state apparatus during that period.

Pick 13 is the highest denomination in the inaugural tugrik issue, making it the least commonly encountered in circulated survivors. The paper itself is prone to edge splitting along fold lines, a known weakness in this Goznak production run.
