About this banknote

The Estonian Treasury issued this 1000 Mark banknote in 1921 as part of the Treasury Notes series from 1920 to 1921. This series was introduced to stabilize the Estonian economy after gaining independence in 1918 and to replace the German Papiermark and Russian Ruble previously in circulation.

The front side features an intricate design with a central motif of a woman with a child surrounded by symbolic figures. The back side includes elaborate floral patterns and a center emblem. This note is cataloged as Pick number 50c and was part of Estonia's early currency efforts during its initial years of independence.
