<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Robidoux Pass, post: 6258371, member: 96691&quot;][USER=41219]@furryfrog02[/USER], this is a most thought-provoking and intriguing post. Transnistria is quite a curious place.&nbsp; Although not recognized by almost all of the rest of the world, they choose to act as if they are an independent nation -- as represented by their money in the post above. As another example, when I visited there about three years ago, I needed to stand in a long line to go through passport control.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Yes, these plastic rubles (note that the coins shown above are all rubles and not kopeks -- but kopeks do circulate) are quite prevalent.&nbsp; Also circulating are aluminum coins which still have the old Soviet hammer and sickle. Supposedly Moldovia has the only current &quot;Stalinist&quot; government in the world.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
