The large numeral '50' dominates the right-centre field against a decorative underprint, while a text block in German script occupies the upper-centre area explaining the note's backing by state assets in territories held by the Western Volunteer Army. |

The Western Volunteer Army — a White Russian force operating in the Baltic under the command of Pavel Bermondt-Avalov — issued this note during its brief, chaotic campaign in late 1919. Bermondt-Avalov's army was never fully recognized by the main White movement, and his attempt to capture Riga in October 1919 turned the Latvians and Lithuanians decisively against the anti-Bolshevik cause in the region. German Freikorps volunteers made up a substantial portion of his force, which made the whole enterprise as much a German irredentist project as a Russian one.
The army collapsed by December 1919. Notes issued under such compressed, unstable conditions rarely circulated long or widely, and the issuing authority itself ceased to exist within weeks.
