Aanvullende informatie	Vladislav Grigoryevich Ardzinba led Abkhazia through its brutal 1992–93 war with Georgia and became the republic's first head of state — the figure around whom the separatist government's entire institutional identity was built. The Apsar series, launched by the Bank of Abkhazia in the mid-2000s, was itself a political act: issuing collectible coinage in a currency with no international recognition, for a territory recognized by virtually no one. Ardzinba died in March 2010, roughly two years after this coin was struck.
