<p>[QUOTE=&quot;zantetsuken, post: 743339, member: 21665&quot;]This last section on Central Asia deals with notes from the <b>KHWAREZM SOVIET PEOPLES REPUBLIC</b>. Initially called the Khanate of Khiva, which was independent from 1917 to 1920. After Khiva fell to the Soviets in 1920, the was changed to Khwarezm. Khwarezm, which was once a powerful empire in the region from the 11th to the 13th centuries, had it&#039;s name restored between 1920 and 1925. Like Bukhara, the Khwarezm republic was dissolved and incorporated into the Soviet republics of Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and the autonomous region of Karakalpakia. The first specimen is a 25,000 Ruble note dated 1340 AH/1921 AD. The second is a 3 Ruble=30,000 Ruble note dated 1340 AH/1922 AD, and the third is 100 Ruble note dated 1341 AH/1923 AD. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://img21.imageshack.us/i/khwarezmspr25000ruble13.jpg/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img21.imageshack.us/i/khwarezmspr25000ruble13.jpg/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4030/khwarezmspr25000ruble13.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i><b>KHWAREZM SOVIET PEOPLES REPUBLIC~25,000 Ruble 1340 AH/1921 AD</b></i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://img23.imageshack.us/i/khwarezmspr3ruble30000r.jpg/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img23.imageshack.us/i/khwarezmspr3ruble30000r.jpg/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/2788/khwarezmspr3ruble30000r.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i><b>KHWAREZM SOVIET PEOPLES REPUBLIC~3 Ruble=30,000 Ruble 1340 AH/1922 AD</b></i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://img193.imageshack.us/i/khwarezmspr100ruble1342.jpg/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img193.imageshack.us/i/khwarezmspr100ruble1342.jpg/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/9739/khwarezmspr100ruble1342.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i><b>KHWAREZM SOVIET PEOPLES REPUBLIC~100 Ruble 1341 AH/1923 AD</b></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
