| Beschrijving voorzijde | The face is typeset in brown on plain paper, with the denomination numeral '250' in large figures at the left margin alongside a vertical guilloche ornament. The central text in Cyrillic reads 'Краткосрочное обязательство Государственного Казначейства' (Short-term obligation of the State Treasury), followed by a promise-to-pay clause redeemable on 1 May 1920 at the State Bank and its branches. Two manuscript signatures of Treasury officials appear below the printed text, with the serial number and place of issue (Omsk, 1 May 1919) at the foot. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Siberian Provisional Government at Omsk was printing its own currency by 1919 under conditions that were deteriorating faster than the presses could run. Admiral Kolchak's White forces controlled the city, and the Treasury notes issued under his administration were intended to provide a functioning monetary system across Siberian territories still outside Bolshevik control — a claim that was already shrinking when this denomination was produced.
Printed locally at Omsk rather than sourced from established European security printers, the guilloche underprint represents a credible attempt at anti-counterfeiting under genuinely difficult wartime production constraints. By late 1919, Kolchak's government had collapsed entirely, and most of this paper became worthless within months of printing.
