Aanvullende informatie

This piece belongs to Russia's ambitious "Russia in the World Map" series, issued to mark the 1,100th anniversary of Russian statehood — a date the Russian government pinned to the legendary summoning of the Varangian prince Rurik to Novgorod in 862 AD. At just over one kilogram of fine gold, the series required the Moscow Mint to develop specialized casting and finishing techniques it had not previously employed at this scale for a legal tender coin.

Mintage was limited to 100 pieces worldwide.
