3 Somoni, Tajikistan, 2010

3 Somoni banknote of Tajikistan, printed in 2010. The obverse features the portrait of Shirinsho Shotemur (1899-1937) - a Tajik political leader and one of the founders of the Tajik Soviet Socialist Republic. The reverse features an image of the parliament of Tajikistan. 

3 is an uncommon denomination - banknotes usually move in denominations of 1-2-5-10. However, USSR and many of its East European satellite states had banknotes in the denomination of 3. This was to make transactions easier - many everyday items were priced in multiples of 3. The denomination of the Tajik banknote shows the Soviet influence.
