RUSSIA--U.S.S.R.. State Currency Note. 25,000 Rubles, 1923 (ND 1924). P-183. PMG Choice Uncirculated 63.
A lovely Choice Uncirculated example of this note, which is the highest denomination for the 1923 series. At left is a Red Army soldier in Civil War era uniform. Below the portrait of the soldier is "CCCP" with two crossed swords, with sickle and hammer above. The color of the green wreath and red banners remain exceptionally appealing. PMG comments "Previously Mounted." PMG Pop 2/6 Finer.
From the Ricardo Collection.
Estimate: $500 - $1000
