| Comments |
Transnistria's "Police" rouble is a commemorative novelty issue rather than a circulating banknote in any conventional sense — the breakaway republic has produced a string of these collector-targeted paper pieces since the 2010s, each tied to a specific institution or anniversary theme. The date 30 April 1945 references the fall of Berlin, used here as a patriotic anchor, though Transnistria as a political entity did not exist until 1990.
Pick 61 belongs to a broader commemorative series. Actual transactional use was never the point.
