About this banknote
The 5 rubles banknote from the 1919 Settlement Notes series was issued by the People's Bank of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR). This series was introduced in May 1919 to address the hyperinflation and economic instability following the Russian Revolution. A notable feature of this series is the inclusion of the "Double-Headed Eagle" coat of arms, designed by Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin, which was adopted from the Provisional Government's design.
The banknotes were printed at the Goznak factory in Penza, with a total of 8 million notes produced. The 5 rubles note features signatures from Georii Leonidovich Pyatakov, the Manager, and Pavel Konstantinovich Baryshev, the Cashier. The note measures 47 x 38 mm and is printed in dark blue on paper.
