| Comments |
Transnistria's banknotes are printed by Goznak in Moscow — an arrangement that has never been politically neutral. The breakaway strip along the left bank of the Dniester has operated its own currency since the early 1990s, backed by no international recognition and no IMF membership, yet its notes come off the same presses that produce Russian federal currency. That relationship says more about Tiraspol's orientation than any treaty could.
Pick 70 is the 2019 reissue of the 1 Rouble denomination, which carries Goznak's characteristically clean intaglio work. Security provision on low-denomination notes in unrecognized jurisdictions is often minimal — the thread and watermark here are functional rather than elaborate.
