...Transnistria - 500 Rubles Circulating Note Dated 1992

Five Hundred Rubles, Dated 1992(1994) P10Reverse
Following the break away from Moldova, Transnistria imported used Russian Ruble in 1994 and re-issued them to the public for circulation with a Transnistria sticker placed over the note. This note that I have uploaded is the same as the Russian 500 Rubles (P245) and is in uncirculated condition. However, according to SCWPM, those Rubles notes imported in 1994 were all supposed to be in used condition and for that, it is believed that this note that I have may have been deliberately 'manufactured' after 1994. Well, either way, this is still one note (Russia or Transnistria) that I do not have in my collection.

    Hi paperbanknotes,
    Always fascinated with such numismatic items.
    Just like our interest in counterstamped coins, suppose the extra sticker changed the whole meaning of the banknote issuance.
    Fascinated because find these items very rich in history.
    First the original history before they were being counterstamped or overprinted, and after which superceded by another set of historical events.
    Thanks for sharing.
    Cheers

    Hi WhyCollect

    Thanks for your comment. I am still not sure if this sticker was deliberately put one or genuine issue. According to the catalogue, those notes initially imported from Russia were all recycled used note, but this one that I have is in UNC condition.
