| Comments |
The RSFSR's 1918 high-denomination issues were produced under genuinely chaotic conditions — the Bolshevik government had inherited the printing infrastructure of the Provisional Government and the Tsarist State Bank, and simply kept the presses running while the civil war dismantled any coherent monetary policy. The 1000 Rouble note belongs to a period when inflation was accelerating faster than new denominations could be introduced, and notes of this face value were depreciating almost as quickly as they were signed.
Pick #95 is known across multiple signature varieties, reflecting the rapid turnover of commissariat officials during 1918–1919.
