Estonia's 1991 500 Krooni was part of the first post-Soviet currency issue, introduced in June 1992 as the kroon replaced the ruble at a fixed rate of 10 rubles per kroon — a deliberate currency board arrangement pegging the kroon to the Deutsche Mark at 8:1. Thomas De La Rue printed the series in London well before the official switchover, the notes held in reserve while the political and logistical mechanics of monetary separation from the USSR were finalized.
The currency board structure gave the kroon unusual credibility for a newly independent state, and it held without devaluation until euro adoption in 2011.
