Previously, before the collapse of the USSR and the separation of Georgia, the banknotes of the USSR, Soviet rubles, were used in calculations, then they were temporarily replaced by Georgian coupons. However, the use of coupons in Georgia lasted only 4 years - in 1995, by a decree of President Shevardnadze, the lari was introduced into circulation. The design of banknotes was entrusted by the Central Bank to European designers, in particular, French and Slovak craftsmen made their contribution.

History reference:
BYN is strictly the national currency and is used for settlements only on the territory of the Republic of Belarus. At the beginning of 1992, Belarus was in a state of need to develop its own currenc...y, because. was included in the process of secession from the USSR and the formation of its own independent republic. While their own currency was being developed, coupons were issued, and a little later settlement tickets were exchanged at the rate for Soviet rubles. Since the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in July 1991, the countrys government has been working to create its own currency. The Presidium of the Supreme Council rejected the initial proposal to call it a thaler, so the countrys national currency is the Belarusian ruble. Often money in Belarus is called "bunnies". In 1992, an alternative to the Soviet ruble was a denomination of 1 ruble with the image of a hare. Hence the name came from. On all banknotes up to 100 rubles, various animals were depicted: bison, wolf, bear, etc., and on banknotes of higher denominations - architectural monuments.
