Original – 50 Rubles (1807), Russian Assignation ruble note
Reason
High EV, high quality (very high grade/condition). A third issue 50 assignation ruble note from 1807 with three autograph signatures. Paper watermarkings are clear around the edges. The reverse upper and lower left corners still have small pieces of mounting adhesive. Assignation rubles of this denomination in this condition are very rare.

    • White speck removed, not sure if the "something" (circular, just above the impressed of the adhesive on the reverse?) is on the surface (foreign) or embedded on/in the paper.--Godot13 (talk) 00:21, 1 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
