Soviet Union 1922 70 Rubles Standard Issue

Soviet Union · 1922 · 70 rubles

The stamp depicts the first coat of arms of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), featuring a hammer and sickle, a rising sun, and a red star, encircled by wheat sheaves. The denomination '70 РУБ.' is at the bottom.

Issued in 1922, this stamp is part of the early definitive series of the Soviet Union, reflecting the new communist state's iconography and its transition from the Russian SFSR to the USSR. It was issued during a period of hyperinflation.
