350 in 1961-91 Rubles

Starting a new topic here on my blog - banknotes and other notes.

Here's a stash of money that I found. I think, it was me that had stashed it away but I have now found it again.

350 Rubles in the 1961-91 Rubles of the late great Soviet period.

Not collectors' items at all -- real working money -- frayed, worn at edges, well used up.

All denominations, except only for the 100 Ruble note - the largest denomination.

And by the way, the 1961-91 Ruble was officially valued at about RUB1 = US$2.

The 25 Ruble banknote.

350 Rubles in Soviet times could pay for workers' canteen dinners for a whole year.

The 50 Ruble banknote, the second largest denomination.
