The Mongolian Trade and Industry Bank — Mongol Худалдаа Аж Үйлдвэрийн Банк — was the sole note-issuing authority in the Mongolian People's Republic throughout this period, functioning entirely under Soviet economic supervision. This 1939 issue was printed by Goznak in Moscow, the same state security printer producing Soviet currency simultaneously, and the technical execution reflects that shared infrastructure closely.
1939 was a significant year on Mongolia's eastern border: the Battles of Khalkhin Gol against Japan were fought that summer. Whether that conflict disrupted or accelerated the note's distribution into circulation is not well documented.
