Georgian 10 Kuponi Banknote 1993 – Vintage Tbilisi

1993 . Georgia had just broken up with the USSR and was trying to reinvent itself. Enter the Kuponi: fragile, chaotic, printed like a nightclub flyer. This 10 Kuponi note shows Tbilisi, with a statue that seems to whisper “we’re still standing.” It was barely useful for buying anything—maybe a dream of stability or a half-baked souvenir. Today, it’s a collector’s item for lovers of post-Soviet drama, inflation nostalgia, and currencies that lived fast and died young. Perfect for saying: “I collected doomed money before it was trendy.”
