5 Rubles Tajikistan Banknote 1994 – Soviet relic

A 5 Rubles banknote from Tajikistan, dated 1994 – the kind of currency that screams “transitional chaos” louder than a broken fax machine in a government office. Featuring the parliament building and national flag, this note is a relic from a time when inflation was a national sport. Fun fact: this ruble had less purchasing power than a stale piece of bread, but it’s rich in post-Soviet drama.
