I picked these two up yesterday from a coin shop's world currency bin. I figure the larger one is from a former Soviet republic and the smaller one looks Russian but I don't see a date and don't know what to make of it. I'm not a currency collector but I sometimes buy things that appeal to me. I'm just looking for help IDing them. Thanks!
The left one is from Uzbekistan. The one in the right is from Mother Russia issued during the short lived government of Alexander Kerensky in 1917.
As stated by Lettow, neither are Soviet notes, the Uzbekistan note is post Soviet, and the Provisional government note is pre Soviet.
Thanks for the help! And I just used the term "Soviet" for simplification in my title. I knew the first one was a post-Soviet republic.
