| Comments |
The Provisional Government of the Northern Region — commonly called the Chaikovskiy Government after its Socialist-Revolutionary leader Nikolai Chaikovskiy — controlled Arkhangelsk under Allied military protection from 1918. These notes were issued as the White administration struggled to maintain a functioning economy in a territory dependent on British logistical support and deeply exposed to Bolshevik military pressure from the south.
The government collapsed in 1920. Notes from this series rarely show heavy circulation wear — not because they were preserved carefully, but because the regime's geographic reach was narrow and its lifespan short.
