Token - The Red Book of the Republic of Udmurtia Set #1

Udmurtia, a republic within the Russian Federation located between the Kama and Vyatka rivers, issued a series of naturalist tokens beginning in 2013 documenting species listed in its regional Red Book — the official endangered species registry maintained at the federal and sub-federal level across Russia. These tokens carry no legal tender status; they exist entirely as collectibles tied to regional conservation awareness programs, a format that became increasingly common among Russian federal subjects in the 2000s and 2010s as mints sought alternative revenue streams.
