Lithuania's talonas coupons were introduced in May 1991 as a rationing instrument while the country was still formally locked in Soviet economic structures — the ruble remained in circulation alongside them. The talonas was not initially a currency at all; it functioned as a supplementary coupon required alongside rubles to purchase certain rationed goods, a mechanism designed to prevent ruble-flush outsiders from draining Lithuanian shops.
Printed domestically by Spindulys in Kaunas rather than abroad, the series was produced under real logistical constraint — Lithuania had declared independence only months earlier and lacked access to the specialist security printers normally used for national issues. The watermark is present but modest by any measure.
