| Comments |
Tajikistan continued using Soviet-era ruble notes after independence, but hyperinflation and the collapse of the ruble zone forced the National Bank to issue its own transitional currency — the Tajikistani ruble — beginning in 1995. This 10,000-rouble denomination belongs to that short-lived series, which was itself replaced by the somoni in 2000 at a rate of 1,000 Tajikistani rubles to one somoni.
The "B" suffix on Pick 9B typically indicates a printing variant — paper stock, serial number format, or security feature difference — from the primary Pick 9A type. Both circulated concurrently.
