| Additional information |
The "bow-sklavazh" in the coin's name refers to a specific Russian jewelry technique — bow-set stone mounting — part of the Bank of Russia's ongoing series celebrating traditional decorative and applied arts of Russian craftsmen. These issues were never intended for circulation; the series functions as a state-sponsored archive of endangered artisanal knowledge, each coin essentially commissioning original artwork in precious metal.
At 169 grams of .925 silver in a 60mm format, production runs were tightly limited and sold directly through authorized dealers at issue price.
