3 Roubles Krasnaya Rechka camp

Krasnaya Rechka was an Austro-Hungarian prisoner-of-war camp near Khabarovsk in the Russian Far East — an unusual location that reflects how far the war's administrative reach actually extended. By 1918 the camp was caught in the chaos of the Russian Civil War, with Bolshevik authority collapsing and Allied intervention forces arriving in the region. The Feld-Jäger-Bataillons-Commando issued internal currency to manage transactions within the compound when external coinage and notes became practically unobtainable.

Camp-issued scrip from this theatre is exceptionally rare — the combination of remote geography, political upheaval, and small print runs meant very little survived in any condition.
