Comments

The 1955 Mongolian series, of which this 3 Tögrög is part, was produced by Goznak in Moscow — the same Soviet state security printer responsible for Soviet currency itself. Mongolia had been issuing banknotes through Goznak since the 1920s, a printing arrangement that reflects the depth of Soviet administrative control over Mongolian financial infrastructure during this period. The designer credits for Shi-bu and D. Amgalan are notably rare for the series; Mongolian designers receiving explicit attribution on notes produced abroad is unusual for this era.

Pick 29 is among the scarcer denominations from the 1955 issue in circulated grades, as lower-value notes absorbed the heaviest day-to-day use.
