| Additional information |
Part of Russia's ongoing zodiac bullion series, this piece was issued by the Bank of Russia under its regular commemorative program for the year. The .999 fine gold specification — rather than the more traditional .900 used in older Soviet and early Russian Federation issues — reflects the post-Soviet shift toward internationally competitive bullion coinage standards adopted through the 1990s.
