Ventspils, a port city on Latvia's Baltic coast, spent the 2000s aggressively branding itself as a progressive, tech-forward municipality — unusual enough for a post-Soviet city of 40,000 that it attracted genuine international attention. The "Virtual Embassy" project was part of that civic identity campaign, and the 500 Venti note is its most tangible artifact: a locally issued fantasy denomination in a currency that never had legal tender status and was never meant to.
These were promotional pieces, not scrip. The Venti was tied to Ventspils tourism initiatives, and surviving examples turn up occasionally in collections of Latvian municipal ephemera rather than mainstream notaphily.
