The monetary history of Russia and the Russian Empire is fascinating and complex, spanning centuries of political and economic change. From the Imperial period to the Soviet era and modern Russia, Russian numismatics reflects the rich history of the country.
The Russian Imperial Ruble
The Russian imperial ruble was the official currency of the Russian Empire from 1704 until the Revolution of 1917. During this period, gold, silver and copper coins were minted, with designs often featuring portraits of the tsars. An important milestone was the currency reform of 1897, which established the gold standard in Russia, significantly improving the stability of the currency.
Transition and Soviet era
After the Russian Revolution, the monetary system underwent drastic changes. The Soviet ruble replaced the imperial ruble in 1923. During the Soviet era, coins and banknotes reflected communist ideology, featuring symbols such as the hammer and sickle. A notable numismatic event was the 1961 currency reform, which introduced a new ruble equivalent to 10 old rubles, simplifying the monetary system and improving the Soviet economy.
