| Obverse description | The brass outer ring bears the legend БАНК РОССИИ (BANK OF RUSSIA) arching along the upper rim and the date 2014 at the base, flanked by stylised laurel and oak branches that extend from the ring onto the copper-nickel centre. The central disc carries the denomination 10 РУБЛЕЙ in two lines within the field, with the numeral 0 incorporating a latent-image security element alternating between the numeral 10 and the abbreviation РУБ depending on the viewing angle. The mint mark of the Saint Petersburg Mint (СПМД) appears at the lower portion of the disc. |

| Additional information |
Part of the long-running Russian Geographical Series, this issue marks Tyumenskaya Oblast — a region whose economic significance stems almost entirely from the West Siberian oil and gas fields discovered there in the 1960s, which transformed it into one of the wealthiest federal subjects in Russia. The oblast contains Khanty-Mansiysk and Yamalo-Nenets autonomous districts, which are administratively subordinate to it but produce the bulk of Russia's hydrocarbon output.
The Bank of Russia has issued well over 100 bimetallic 10-rouble pieces in this regional series since 2005, and collector fatigue has kept secondary market premiums modest for most common-date examples.
