The talonas was introduced in 1991 as a supplementary coupon currency alongside the Soviet ruble, initially required for purchasing rationed goods. By mid-1992 it had effectively displaced the ruble in daily transactions, functioning as the de facto national currency before the litas was restored in June 1993. The word itself simply means "coupon" in Lithuanian — the population never fully warmed to it.
Printed domestically by Spindulys in Kaunas, the series was a pragmatic solution produced under real constraints. The watermark is present but modest, reflecting what Lithuanian printing infrastructure could reliably deliver at the time.
