Transnistria, officially the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR),is an unrecognised breakaway state that is internationally recognised as a part of Moldova.
Transnistria controls most of the narrow strip of land between the Dniester river and the MoldovanUkrainian border, as well as some land on the other side of the river's
bank. Its capital and largest city is Tiraspol. Transnistria has been recognised only by three other unrecognised or partially recognised breakaway states: Abkhazia, Artsakh and
South Ossetia. Transnistria is officially designated by the Republic of Moldova as the Administrative-Territorial Units of the Left Bank of the Dniester Romanian:
Unitățile Administrativ-Teritoriale din stīnga Nistrului)or as Stīnga Nistrului ("Left Bank of the Dniester"). The Council of Europe considers the
territory to be under military occupation by Russia.

Soviet banknotes were used in the
Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic after its
formation in 1990. When the former Soviet
republics began issuing their own currencies,
Transnistria was flooded with Soviet roubles.
In an attempt to protect its financial
system, in July 1993, the Transnistrian
government bought used Goznak-printed
Soviet and
Russian notes dated 19611992 which it
modified by applying adhesive stamps bearing
the image of General
Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov, founder
of Tiraspol and its corresponding
denomination. These stamped notes replaced
unstamped Soviet and Russian notes at par.
It is thought that most uncirculated notes
bearing these stickers were created after
1994 specifically for collectors.[3]
