The 1922 Litas series was Lithuania's assertion of monetary independence following the chaotic period of German Ostmark and Soviet ruble circulation that had plagued the country since WWI. The Litas itself was introduced in October 1922, replacing the Talonas at a rate of 100 to 1 — a deliberately stabilizing move that pegged the new currency tightly to the US dollar and earned immediate credibility on international exchanges.
Pick 14 is among the lower denominations of that founding series. Notes from this issue are genuinely scarce in any grade; circulation was heavy and the Lithuanian public had little incentive to preserve low-value paper.
