About this banknote

The Port-Kunda Cement Factory in Estonia issued this 25 rubles note on August 20, 1941. It was part of a series used during the German occupation of Estonia, where local factories occasionally issued their own currency to facilitate transactions in specific areas.

The front design features inscriptions in German and Estonian, with the denomination prominently displayed as "25 RUB." The note includes official signatures and a seal from the cement factory. It was primarily printed in light blue and brown. These notes were valid in the factory area and demonstrated localized economic control during the occupation period.
