About this banknote

The 3 Kopeks banknote from the Russian Empire, issued in 1915, was part of the Treasury Small Change Notes series. These notes were introduced by the Russian Treasury to address a severe shortage of small change coins during World War I. The 3 Kopeks note, measuring 79 x 45 mm, features a green design on a light green underprint and is printed on watermarked paper with design No. 324 / type 27A.

A notable feature of this series is the inscription on the reverse: "ПОДДѢЛКА БИЛЕТА ПРЕСЛѢДУЕТСЯ ЗАКОНОМЪ," meaning "Banknote forgery is prosecuted by law." This emphasizes the legal consequences of counterfeiting these emergency currency notes. The Treasury Small Change Notes were a temporary measure to alleviate the currency crisis caused by the war, reflecting the Russian Empire's efforts to maintain economic stability during a tumultuous period.
