1 Tögrög, Mongolia, 1955

This is a 1 Tögrög banknote from Mongolia, issued in 1955 by the State Bank of the Mongolian People’s Republic. The obverse features the state emblem of Mongolia on the left, and a portrait of Damdin Sükhbaatar, a Mongolian revolutionary hero, on the right. The reverse features Buddhist eternal knots, and guilloche patterns - fine, interlaced decorative lines that served as an anti-counterfeiting measure.

This note was issued during the socialist period when Mongolia was a close ally of the Soviet Union. Mongolia's Togrog was introduced as a currency in 1925, replacing the Chinese Yuan - Mongolia did not have its own currency till then. This move was a part of the creation of the Mongolian People's Republic. At that time, Mongolia also adopted the Cyrillic (Russian alphabet) - which it continues to use to the present day.
