Additional information

Issued to mark Russia's hosting of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, this piece belongs to a broader gold and silver program the Bank of Russia ran across several years preceding the Games. Judo holds particular political weight in Russian Olympic programming — Vladimir Putin is a black belt and former competitive judoka, and the sport received outsized promotional emphasis throughout the Sochi cycle.

At just over a kilogram of .999 gold, production numbers were minimal, as they are for all coins in this kilogram format.
