Rückseitenbeschreibung Plain olive-green design centred on a large ornate guilloche rosette enclosing the two-line inscription 'UNA SUTA / LEI', with the denomination numeral '100' repeated to the left and right within decorative cartouches. The curved legend 'COMANDAMENTUL ARMATEI ROSII' runs along the upper arc of the composition. The overall design is typographic and engraved, with no figurative vignette, relying entirely on geometric lathe-work and foliate ornament for security.

Anmerkungen

Issued under Soviet military authority following Romania's occupation in 1944, this note was part of a broader series of Red Army Command currency printed by Goznak in Moscow and deployed across occupied territories as a tool for extracting local goods and services without drawing on Soviet state reserves. The Romanian leu denominations were calculated to circulate alongside existing Romanian currency at a fixed rate the Soviets set unilaterally — one that heavily favored the occupying force.

Romania was compelled to accept these notes as legal tender despite having no role in their production or authorization. The arrangement generated significant inflation and was a source of lasting economic resentment in postwar Romanian memory of the Soviet presence.
