<p>[QUOTE=&quot;zantetsuken, post: 743341, member: 21665&quot;]The next two notes are from the <b>FAR EASTERN REPUBLIC</b>. This short lived republic was established by the Bolshevik government as a buffer state against Japan between 1920 and 1922. The Japanese, who mostly supported the White government, controlled numerous areas along the coastline including the southern half of Sakhalin island, and the port city of Vladivostok. The White regiments last outpost, the &#039;Provisional Government of Priamar&#039; was defeated by the Soviets in October 1922. The two specimens listed are a 10 Ruble and 1,000 Ruble note both dated 1920.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://img94.imageshack.us/i/fareasternsovietrepubli.jpg/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img94.imageshack.us/i/fareasternsovietrepubli.jpg/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/6040/fareasternsovietrepubli.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i><b>FAR EASTERN REPUBLIC~10 Ruble 1920</b></i></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://img188.imageshack.us/i/fareasternsovietrepubli.jpg/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://img188.imageshack.us/i/fareasternsovietrepubli.jpg/" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/6040/fareasternsovietrepubli.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i><b>FAR EASTERN REPUBLIC~1,000 Ruble 1920</b></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
