| Additional information |
The 1959 Mongolian coinage series, of which this piece is part, was issued under the Mongolian People's Republic during a period of near-total Soviet economic integration. Mongolia's mint capacity was nonexistent — these coins were struck in the Soviet Union, a dependency that persisted for decades.
