The Deposit Office silver rouble notes of 1840 were a direct product of Finance Minister Yegor Kankrin's monetary reform program, which sought to restore confidence in Russian paper money by backing circulation strictly with silver coin held in reserve. Each note was theoretically redeemable on demand for its face value in silver — a genuine departure from the assignat system that had hemorrhaged credibility since the Napoleonic wars.
The series was short-lived. By 1843, the Deposit Office notes were absorbed into the new State Credit Note system under the newly restructured Expedition for State Credit Bills, and the original deposit roubles were withdrawn and largely destroyed. Survivors are correspondingly rare.
