World. - 2 banknotes - various dates (No reserve price)

1. Above: 10,000 rubles settlement voucher for Soviet Russia (Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic) in 1919
Issuance background: This is a settlement certificate (Расчетный знак) issued during the civil war in Soviet Russia (1918-1922), which was the official currency of the early Soviet regime. At that time, the civil war led to hyperinflation, and the ruble depreciated significantly, so large denomination banknotes were issued.
Ticket details:
The top Russian word means "Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic Settlement Bill", with a central prominent denomination of 10,000 rubles, and the four corners and middle are repeatedly printed with denomination numbers.
On the ticket there is the signature of the People's Commissar of Finance and the cashier, as well as the number "ВЯ 116944".
This edition of the 1919 banknote has a special point: the reverse side is printed with the words "Proletarians of the world, unite!" in 7 languages, including Chinese. The slogan (written in Chinese as "Unity of the Poor Workers") was the iconic design of the early international communist movement.
Historical value: It witnessed the economic turmoil during the Soviet Civil War and was one of the first European banknotes in the world to be printed in Chinese, making it a popular variety in numismatic collections.

2. Bottom: 19th-century Newcastle upon Tyne Joint Stock Banking Company banknotes
Issuance background: This is a banknote issued by a local joint-stock bank in the United Kingdom, which was very common in England in the 19th century, and each issued locally circulated banknotes, which were gradually replaced by the Bank of England's uniform banknotes after the Bank's Charter Act of 1844.
Ticket details:
The bank's name "NEWCASTLE upon TYNE" and "Joint Stock Banking Company" are printed on the top, and the promise "Promise to pay the Bearer on Demand" is underneath.
The central engraving depicts the Port of Newcastle, with sailing ships and dock buildings, reflecting the historical status of the area as an important port city.
The "5" on the right indicates that this is a £5 note numbered "7743".
Historical value: This type of local bank banknotes has a small number of surviving banknotes, reflecting the modern local financial history of Britain and the commercial style of port cities, and is a physical material for studying the British economy in the 19th century.
