Ostroubles were the money emitted by German occupation forces in Kurzeme and Riga. Tzar's Roubles means the Roubles of the former Russia Empire. As it is seen, only banknotes of 500, 100, 50 and 25 Roubles were accepted for exchange. The distribution and exchange of this money was prohibited on March 18, 1921. The Municipality (Dome) Roubles were the money printed by Riga municipality before Latvia state was established. The Latvia currency unit Lat did not yet exist in December 1920. It was introduced on August 3, 1922, but the first banknotes were printed in November 1922. The exchange rate was 50 Latvian Roubles for 1 Lat. |
