Additional information

Sakha (Yakutia) has no legal authority to issue currency — monetary policy in the Russian Federation is exclusively a federal prerogative under the Central Bank of Russia. These pieces are fantasy issues, produced outside any governmental mandate and with no circulation purpose. Sakha never operated a mint, and no "kopek" denomination was ever sanctioned by the republic's authorities.

Collector interest exists purely as a curiosity of post-Soviet regionalism, a period when dozens of Russian federal subjects flirted with symbolic assertions of autonomy.
