About this banknote

The Eesti Rahapaja (Estonian Mint) issued the 500 Mark banknote in 1919 as part of the short-lived 5% Short-Term Obligations series. This series was introduced during a period of financial stabilization in the aftermath of World War I, with production occurring shortly after Estonia declared independence in 1918.

The front side of the banknote features a design from the 1919 Series D, displaying black print on a green underprint, and it is printed on both sides. This specific note, identified as Pick 19, is notable for its role in the early financial system of the newly independent Estonia.
