2019-09-12 Thu
Tajikistan is a country in Central Asia surrounded by Afghanistan, China, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. It’s known for rugged mountains and is popular for hiking and climbing. The Fann Mountains, near the national capital of Dushanbe, have snow-capped peaks that rise over 5,000 meters. The range encompasses the Iskanderkulsky Nature Refuge, a notable bird habitat named for Iskanderkul and a turquoise lake formed by glaciers.Though the current currency of Tajikistan is Somoni which is subdivided into 100 Diram, the Rouble or Ruble was the currency of Tajikistan between May 10, 1995 and October 29, 2000. It was subdivided into 100 Tanga, although no coins or banknotes were issued in Tanga.
Today we are looking at a 1 Diram Banknote issued in 1999. The obverse has Sadriddin Ayni Opera and Ballet Theatre; while the reverse has the beautiful Pamir Mountains. This note sports a multitoned picture of the emblem of the National Bank of Tajikistan as its watermark.
