| Opmerkingen |
The February Revolution of 1917 left Russia with a functioning treasury but a collapsing economy. The Provisional Government inherited the tsarist note-printing apparatus in Petrograd and continued issuing high denominations to cover spiraling military expenditures — this 1000-rouble note being among the largest produced under that transitional authority before the Bolshevik seizure in October.
The "H" suffix in Pick 31H denotes a specific watermark or paper variant within a series that ran through multiple production batches, reflecting the sheer volume printed during the inflationary months of 1917. Overproduction was dramatic: the Provisional Government's money supply expansion accelerated to the point where the rouble had lost the majority of its prewar purchasing power before the year was out.
