Sakhalin Island has no monetary authority and issues no legal tender — these "roubles" are privately produced fantasy pieces with no governmental sanction, sometimes marketed as regional collectibles or souvenirs. The island itself, administered as a Russian federal subject, uses the standard Russian rouble.
