| Additional information |
Belarusbank — formally Savings Bank of the Republic of Belarus — is the country's largest retail bank by assets and depositor base, founded in its Soviet incarnation in 1922. This coin is one of dozens of Belarusian commemorative silver issues produced during the early 2010s, a period when the National Bank aggressively expanded its collector coin program following the ruble's catastrophic devaluation in 2011, when the currency lost roughly half its value against the dollar in a single month.
