Turkestan 1 Ruble Provisional Stamp

Turkestan · 1918 · 1 Ruble

A rectangular stamp featuring a central frame with the Cyrillic text 'ТУРКЕСТАНЪ' (Turkestan) at the top and '1 РУБ' (1 Ruble) at the bottom, separated by a decorative pattern.

This stamp is a provisional issue from Turkestan, released during the Russian Civil War (1918-1922) due to a shortage of official stamps from the central government, reflecting the region's political autonomy during that period.
