The Armed Forces of South Russia (AFSR) under Denikin issued this note during the peak of the White movement's territorial control in 1919, when his forces briefly held much of Ukraine and the northern Caucasus. The AFSR operated its own treasury and printing apparatus out of necessity — Bolshevik-controlled banks were inaccessible, and the existing Tsarist and Provisional Government notes circulating in the region were depreciating rapidly and subject to local manipulation.
White émigré financial administration was chronically underfunded, and notes like this one competed in circulation against Bolshevik sovznaki, Ukrainian karbovantsi, and a half-dozen other local emission authorities simultaneously. By early 1920, the AFSR's collapse and retreat to the Crimea rendered this series worthless.
