Georgia, B206a, P30, 1000 Coupon (1993)
Omschrijving
After declaring independence on 9 April 1991, Georgia continued using the Russian ruble (RUR) until 11 June 1993, at which date the ruble ceased to be legal tender, although rubles and US dollars remained widely accepted. Beginning 5 April 1993, the Russian ruble was replaced at par with the Georgian coupon, a temporary currency with no subdivisions. Designed by painter Elguja Amashukeli, all of these notes have 1 as the denominator in the fractional prefix, with the exception of replacement notes which have 10 as the denominator. The coupon was not universally accepted, and was often discounted, forcing the National Bank of Georgia to declare it the republic’s only legal tender on 3 August 1993.
