| Additional information |
No such entity as the "Crimea Republic" has ever issued legal tender. This is a fantasy piece produced in the wake of Russia's annexation of Crimea in March 2014, a politically charged moment that spawned a cottage industry of unofficial coins, medals, and tokens exploiting the ambiguity of the peninsula's status. Buyers should be clear: no governing body authorized this issue, no mint accountability exists, and the denomination is fictitious.
