Comments

The Sibrevkom currency is one of the stranger products of the Russian Civil War's final chapter. By the time these notes were ordered from the American Bank Note Company, the Bolsheviks had effectively won Siberia — Admiral Kolchak was captured and shot in February 1920 — yet the new Soviet administration still lacked the infrastructure to print its own regional currency and turned to a New York firm to supply it.

The ABNC connection gives these notes unusually clean, technically accomplished printing compared to the improvised wartime issues they replaced. Sibrevkom itself was dissolved in late 1925 when Siberia was reorganized into oblasts, making the issuing authority short-lived even by Civil War standards.
