Comments

Issued by the Republic of Tatarstan, and was issued for local circulation from 1991 to 1992. This is a currency check, issued in response to the breakup of the Soviet Union, to the hyperinflation that the newly introduced Russian ruble experienced after its introduction, and to respond to the shortages of necessities and goods that occurred throughout the Russian Federation.
