History of creation

The people voted!

The history of the creation of the above banknotes is so curious that a whole book can be devoted to it, the genre of which, however, is difficult to determine. Moreover, despite the fact that the history of the appearance of each of these banknotes is completely different, they have much in common.

In 2016, the Bank of Russia announced a competition for the choice of symbols for new banknotes of 200 and 2000 rubles. From June to October, on the site Your-Russia.rf, an all-Russian popular vote was held to choose the region whose symbol will be presented on each of these banknotes. And as a result, on October 7, 2016, the regions of the Far East and Sevastopol reached the final, and until the last moment it was not known which of the two winning regions would be depicted on a banknote of 200 rubles, and which - on a banknote of 2000 rubles. This was to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Bank of Russia.

Recall that such cities as Vladimir, Volgograd, Irkutsk, Kazan, Nizhny Novgorod, Petrozavodsk, Sergiev Posad and Sochi. Thus, we could see on the new banknotes Mamaev Kurgan with the sculpture “The Motherland Calls!”, the Kazan Kremlin or other equally famous symbols.

How it all began?

Let's look back a while and see how it all began in chronological order.

Step 1. Idea and filing a petition

And it all started, oddly enough, with the famous song of the Mumiy Troll group from the album Morskaya, released in 1997, which was called Vladivostok 2000. Remember, perhaps:

We're leaving, we're leaving, we're leaving

Cleaner times will come

Beats native, blazing in ecstasy,

Vladivostok two thousand.

These very TWO THOUSANDS played a key role in our history with the light hand of the PROVODA advertising agency. In 2014, the agency staff came up with an interesting idea: “... why, over the almost 20 years of the existence of the song “Vladivostok 2000”, such an obvious combination of city and number in the context of money has not manifested itself in the information space” (for more details on how it was, read the article on agency website http://www.raprovoda.ru/vladivostok-2000-resonance - we warn you, there are a lot of letters!).

And away we go. In the same year, an official petition was launched on the website www.change.org addressed to Central Bank Russian Federation with a proposal to issue a banknote with a face value of two thousand rubles with images of Vladivostok. A preliminary sketch of the banknote (concept) in the agency had already been developed by that time, and looked like this:

On the front side, it was supposed to depict the Golden Bridge across the Golden Horn Bay, which was built as part of the city's preparation program for the APEC summit, and opened in 2012 - it became the hallmark of the city and a symbol of the return of Russia's interests to the Far East.

On the reverse side there was an image of the Vladivostok funicular. It was opened in 1962 on the initiative of Khrushchev, who planned to turn Vladivostok into a "Soviet San Francisco".

Step 2. Promotion of the idea to the masses

The idea of ​​issuing the 2000th banknote appeared on Vladivostok communities in social networks, from where it later migrated to the main Primorsky media. Naturally, she received support from the fans of the Mumiy Troll group, who influenced the rest of the musical community. And, finally, the federal media picked up the idea, in particular, an exclusive interview was given to one of the business magazines, which played a significant role in its further promotion. Then about the possible appearance new banknote the whole country spoke: various media wrote articles, videos were released on television, and people savored the idea on the forums, in general, a popular outcry rose.

Step 3. Refusal of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation

A few days later, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation announced that it did not plan to issue a banknote with such a denomination, since the existing nominal range of banknotes fully meets the needs of cash. monetary circulation. This became known in February 2015. Is all your efforts in vain?

Step 4. Incident with the Chinese news agency

In August 2015, the Chinese news service Xinhua (one of the world's largest news agencies) showed the Vladivostok 2000 banknote in a news story about the circulation of Russian and Chinese currencies in the border area. This news again raised a stir in the domestic media, which gave additional fuel to the already launched "project".

The topic rose again and was "replicated" among musicians and other figures of Russian culture.

Step 5. Bills to be!

On April 12, Elvira Sakhipzadovna Nabiullina, Chairman of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, announced the issue of ruble bills denominations of 200 and 2000 rubles. The design of banknotes was supposed to be chosen at a popular vote, which was put into practice.

Thus, the Central Bank of the Russian Federation went to meet the wishes of the people and placed the symbol of Vladivostok on the 2000th banknote - the Golden Bridge, but he could show off on a banknote with a face value of 200 rubles. An idea launched by an advertising agency into the masses spread like a virus and eventually materialized.

As for the prehistory of the appearance of a two-hundred-ruble banknote, this is already the fourth banknote with that denomination. It was first introduced in Russia in 1991 and reissued in 1992 and 1993. Details at this link.

Features of banknotes 200 and 2000 rubles

Key Features

According to the General Director of Goznak JSC Arkady Trachuk, the specialists of the Central Bank and Goznak JSC set themselves the task of creating not only beautiful and modern, but also high-tech banknotes, resulting in an innovative product. The style of the developed design will be used in the modernization of old and the creation of new Russian banknotes. So we expect restyling of the entire banknote range in the future.

New technologies have provided the most popular banknote of 200 rubles with such an important advantage as durability. The banknote is more resistant to dirt and mechanical damage, which, according to calculations, should increase its service life by 1.5 times compared to other denominations.

Another important advantage is that the security features placed on the new banknotes make it much easier to determine their authenticity without the use of special technical means - you will have more chances to detect a fake without resorting to sophisticated manipulations, just look at the right angle, into the light, and run your fingers over the banknote .

Visually impaired people were not spared. New tactile security features, special marks along the edges of the banknote and large contrast images of the denomination with tactile properties were applied.

On the new banknotes, a number of machine-readable security features were redesigned, which made it possible to increase the reliability of processing banknotes by ATMs and other banking equipment.

Much attention was paid to ways to protect new banknotes from counterfeiting. For example, unique, unparalleled security threads were placed on them, in which three security features are combined: they appear when the banknote is swaying, when viewed at a certain angle, and also through the light. This greatly simplifies authentication by the public.

And, finally, one more novelty - on the front side of each banknote there is a coded link to the page of the Bank of Russia with detailed information about decoration and security features. The QR code can be read by any free application on your smartphone.

Both in that and in the other banknote, the following features can be distinguished.

The coat of arms of the Russian Federation is located on the front side of the banknotes at the top left. Security fibers of two types are embedded in the paper - gray fibers and colored fibers with alternating sections of red and blue colors.

The banknotes have two serial numbers located on the reverse side of the banknote and having a series designation of two letters and nine digits of the number. The left number is read on the short side of the banknote, the right number on the long side.

The image of the ruble symbol ₽ on these banknotes appears in several places: on a security thread, in microimages. The denomination figures are larger than on other denominations of the banknote series, and have a noticeable relief.

Distinctive features

A two hundred-ruble note has dimensions of 150 x 65 mm (this is the standard size for all banknotes from 10 to 500 rubles). Four fragments of a diving holographic security thread 3 mm wide emerge on the surface of its front side.

A denomination of two thousand rubles has dimensions of 157 x 69 mm (such an enlarged size is also in 1000 and 5000-ruble banknotes). A diving holographic security thread 5 mm wide emerges on the surface of its front side in the windows of a figured shape. Additional security elements, such as an optically variable element (the so-called movable ring, which moves when the banknote sways), significantly increase the level of security of this banknote.

Judging by the reviews, checking banknotes is not so convenient, especially if they are wrinkled or dirty, and the application is still damp at the time of this review, so all the authentication methods listed on the official website of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation come to our aid. They are made with both "armed" and "naked" eyes.

Verification of the authenticity of a banknote of 200 (two hundred) rubles

It is recommended to use information from the official website of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to verify the authenticity of banknotes of 200 and 2000 rubles, and of the entire banknote series. At this link you will find all the signs of the authenticity of two hundred rubles. Unfortunately, it is not very convenient to view them from a smartphone; they are designed, rather, for users of personal computers. But the Central Bank offers us to download all the protective signs in the form of a booklet (pdf-file), which you can see below.

Verification of the authenticity of the banknote 2000 (two thousand) rubles

You can get acquainted with all the signs of authenticity of a denomination of two thousand rubles on this page of the website of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.

See below for a booklet with all the security features of authenticity.

Information taken from the official website of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.

In addition, I would like to draw attention to the reminder of the Bank of Russia that in order to reliably determine the authenticity of a banknote, it is necessary to check at least three security features.

Citizens of the Russian Federation have been preparing for the appearance of new banknotes for more than a year, and for the first time Nabiullina announced plans to issue new banknotes in April 2016. In June-October 2016, a vote was held for the right to “get on the money”. Sounds funny, doesn't it?

The winners were the sights of Sevastopol and the Far East. Although, to be honest, were the votes of citizens taken into account? Sevastopol, separated from Ukraine by a dubious referendum, and the Vostochny cosmodrome, where, according to official figures, more than $2.5 billion was stolen? Okay, what's the difference...

Banks were not very happy with the new banknotes, as it is necessary to update the security mechanisms in ATMs, which is very expensive.

Nabiullina said that the issue of new banknotes in denominations of 200 and 2000 rubles would not affect inflation. Since it is planned to reduce the number of banknotes of 100 and 1000 rubles. It turns out that part of the "hundreds" and "mowers" is simply replaced with new banknotes. By the way, we will not find out about this - all that remains is to take the word of the head of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation. On the other hand, there is a budget deficit, as well as huge injections into the rehabilitation of Otkritie and Binbank. But let's get down to the main point...
