| Additional information |
Belarus issued this coin two years before the Sochi Games opened — common practice for Olympic collector programs, which typically require extended lead time for mintage approval, die preparation, and international distribution. The National Bank ran a sustained series of precious-metal issues tied to Sochi, parceled out across multiple years to sustain collector demand rather than flooding the market at once.
