| Descrizione del dritto | The upper portion carries a central vignette of a sheaf of wheat crossed with a pickaxe and anchor, set within a radiating sunburst and flanked by classical columned pilasters with guilloche panels. The lower half presents a framed text panel with Cyrillic inscriptions naming the denomination and issuer, with the date 1920 at foot centre and two manuscript signature lines for the manager and cashier. The denomination is repeated in Cyrillic lettering along all four borders as a continuous marginal legend. |

| Descrizione del rovescio | The reverse is enclosed within a dense ornamental guilloche frame, with the large Cyrillic numeral '1' appearing within circular cartouches at top and bottom of the central panel. The denomination in bold Cyrillic text occupies the centre, below which two lines of Cyrillic text affirm that the note is secured by all property of the Republic and that counterfeiting is prosecuted by law. Intricate lathe-work patterns fill the field, with the denomination repeated in Cyrillic along all four margins. |

The Far Eastern Republic was a deliberately engineered buffer state, created in April 1920 by the Bolsheviks to avoid direct military confrontation with Japan along the Pacific coast. Its paper currency was issued with full knowledge that the republic itself was temporary — Chita became its capital only after a prolonged struggle with competing local governments, each printing their own scrip.
The S-prefix in the Pick reference reflects its status as a local or provisional issue rather than a national central bank series. Surviving examples from this series vary considerably in condition, as wartime Siberia was not kind to paper — humidity, rough handling, and the sheer chaos of White, Red, and Japanese forces cycling through the region left most notes in poor shape.
