| Comments |
The Priamur Regional Government was one of several short-lived White Russian administrations clinging to the Russian Far East as Bolshevik forces consolidated westward. Vladivostok remained a contested pocket well into 1922, and the State Bank branch there issued local currency out of sheer necessity — Kerensky notes and Romanov-era roubles were still circulating alongside Japanese military scrip and a rotating cast of regional obligations, none of which the public trusted unconditionally.
Pick S1245 belongs to a series that saw extremely heavy circulation in a cash-starved economy before the region fell to Soviet forces in October 1922. Notes from this issue that survived did so largely outside the region — carried out by White emigres fleeing to Harbin, Shanghai, or Japan.
