Front: The Soyombo symbol, Mongolia's national emblem, appears at center within an ornate guilloché rosette. The Soyombo is a columnar arrangement of abstract and geometric figures representing fire, sun, moon, earth, water, and the yin-yang, dating from the 17th century and serving as a symbol of Mongolian independence and sovereignty. This symbol appears on Mongolia's flag and state seal and has been featured on Mongolian currency since the nation's independence. The text 'МОНГОЛБАНК' (Bank of Mongolia) and 'ТӨГРӨГ' (Tögrög) appear in traditional Mongolian script, with the denomination '1' prominently displayed. The year 2014 is printed at lower left.

Back: Traditional Mongolian wrestling (Bökh), one of Mongolia's 'Three Manly Games' alongside archery and horse racing. Two wrestlers are depicted in the distinctive eagle dance pose worn during competitions at Naadam festivals and other traditional celebrations. Mongolian wrestling has been practiced for centuries and is deeply embedded in nomadic culture, representing strength, skill, and honor. The sport remains highly popular in modern Mongolia and wrestling champions hold revered status in society. The denomination '20' appears multiple times, with text in Mongolian script and the Mongolian numeric script visible along the borders.

The story

Background & history

This note belongs to the 2014 series of Mongolian tögrög banknotes issued by the Bank of Mongolia (Монголбанк). The tögrög has been Mongolia's currency since 1925, though it has undergone multiple redesigns reflecting the country's political transitions from Soviet influence to independence. The 2014 series features updated security features and designs that emphasize Mongolian national symbols and cultural heritage. The 1 tögrög denomination is the smallest unit in this series. Mongolia transitioned to market economy in the 1990s after the fall of communism, and modern banknote designs emphasize pre-Soviet Mongolian heritage including traditional sports, the Soyombo symbol, and historical figures. The Soyombo was created by Zanabazar, a 17th-century monk and national hero.
