Additional information

Crimea has no internationally recognized independent monetary authority, and this piece was never legal tender anywhere. Issued in the months following the March 2014 annexation by Russia, it belongs to a well-documented category of fantasy issues produced commercially — typically in Ukraine or Russia — targeting collectors drawn to the political moment rather than any legitimate numismatic institution.
