Where & when
What's on the note
Front: The Novgorod Kremlin tower, specifically the central watchtower from the ancient fortress walls of Veliky Novgorod, one of Russia's oldest cities and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Kremlin (Detinets) dates to the 11th–15th centuries and was a key fortification of medieval Rus'. The note displays the denomination '5' in multiple locations with the text 'ПЯТЬ РУБЛЕЙ' (Five Rubles) and 'Новгород' (Novgorod) beneath the tower image. The year '1997' is printed in the lower right.
Back: Krasnoyarsk cityscape featuring two landmarks: the arched Communal Bridge (Kommunalny Bridge) over the Yenisei River, built 1955–1961, and the prominent Paraskeva Pyatnitsa Chapel, a red-brick Orthodox chapel built in 1852–1855 atop Karaulnaya Hill, which has become the symbol of Krasnoyarsk. The bridge appears in the left vignette showing its characteristic arched structure spanning the river, while the octagonal chapel tower dominates the right side. The denomination '10' appears on the back (mismatched from the front's '5'), with text reading 'ДЕСЯТЬ РУБЛЕЙ' (Ten Rubles) and 'БИЛЕТ БАНКА РОССИИ' (Bank of Russia Note).

Background & history
This note is part of the 1997 redenomination series that came into circulation on January 1, 1998, when Russia redenominated its currency at a rate of 1,000 old rubles to 1 new ruble to combat hyperinflation of the 1990s. The 1997-dated series (issued 1998) featured Russian cities and monuments. The front depicts Veliky Novgorod, one of Russia's most historic cities. CRITICAL MISMATCH: The front shows 5 Rubles while the back shows 10 Rubles, indicating these are images from two different notes incorrectly paired. The serial number 'бТ 4900082' visible on the back belongs to the 10 Ruble note. The 5 Ruble denomination in this series typically features the Novgorod Kremlin on the front and the Monument to the Millennium of Russia on the back, while the 10 Ruble note features the Krasnoyarsk landmarks shown here. This is a mismatched pair of front and back images from different denominations of the same series.
