| Additional information |
Father Frost — the Soviet-era rebranding of an older Slavic winter spirit, deliberately stripped of any association with Orthodox Christmas during the atheist campaigns of the 1920s and 30s — became the official gift-bringer of New Year's rather than Christmas, a distinction that persisted well into the post-Soviet period. The Bank of Russia has issued seasonal bullion and collector silver in this vein annually for decades, the Father Frost motif appearing with enough regularity that the series functions more as a calendrical fixture than a numismatic event.
