Unfortunately for the government by the time the notes had been delivered to Russia the Bolsheviks had taken control of a good portion of the country, and the notes were for the most part never released into circulation. The vignette on the front of this note represents commerce, and notice the steam train, sailing vessel in the background. Also note the double headed Russian eagle over the State Duma or Russian Parliament on the shield.</b></p> <p style="text-align: left"><br /></p> <p style="text-align: left"><br /></p> </p><p>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
