CVC & Collectables presents this 1918 100 Roubles Russia/Eastern from the Priamur Region holds historical and numismatic significance, representing a turbulent period in the region’s history during World War I and the Russian Civil War. The Priamur Region, located in the Far East of Russia, was a territory of strategic importance during World War I and the subsequent Russian Civil War. It encompassed areas that are now part of Russia’s Khabarovsk Krai and Amur Oblast, as well as parts of China’s Heilongjiang Province.
The 100 Rouble denomination indicates the monetary value assigned to the note, which was a significant sum during the time of issuance, reflecting its importance in commercial transactions and daily economic life in the region.
The issuance of banknotes by regional authorities during the Russian Civil War was a response to the breakdown of central authority and the need to maintain local economies amidst the chaos of conflict. The Priamur Region, situated on the border between Russia and China, experienced significant political and military upheaval during this period.
As a relic of the Russian Civil War and the tumultuous events of the early 20th century, the 1918 100 Roubles note from the Priamur Region is highly sought after by collectors of Russian and Eastern European currency, as well as numismatists interested in the history of wartime finance.
