Russian ruble banknotes and coins

One Russian ruble (₽) can be subdivded into 100 kopecks (k).

There are seven denominations of Russian ruble banknotes in circulation: ₽10, ₽50, ₽100, ₽200, ₽500, ₽1000 and ₽2000; and four frequently-used coins: ₽1, ₽2, ₽5 and ₽10. Smaller denomination coins ranging from 1-50 kopecks also exist but are not widely used due to their low value.

The Russian ruble has been in use since the 13th century and is the second-oldest national currency in the world after the British pound.
