About this banknote

The Eesti Pank, the central bank of Estonia, issued the Pangatäht banknotes series in 1922. This series was introduced to stabilize the national currency during the early years of Estonian independence following World War I. The bank aimed to differentiate and establish a stable economic system amidst regional monetary fluctuations.

The 1000 Mark note features an ornate design with intricate patterns and inscriptions. The front side prominently displays the denomination "1000" and "EESTI PANGATÄHT." The back features a detailed harbor scene. This specific note corresponds to Pick number 59d and was part of efforts to solidify Estonia’s monetary framework in the post-war period.
