| Additional information |
Issued to mark Russia's hosting of the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics, not the Summer Games — the catalog name here is a misnomer. The XXX Summer Olympics refers to London 2012, and Russia did produce a separate commemorative series for that event. Whether this piece belongs to the Sochi program mislabeled or represents a genuine London 2012 issue cataloged under an incorrect obverse series is worth verifying against the CBR reference before sale.
