I am a collector. After visiting the Russian Federation this past summer, I thought this coin would be a wonderful, unique addition to my collection. I love the beautiful double eagle and the finish on the skier. It is an exquisite coin.

Comments about 1 oz Sterling Silver 3-Roubles Coin - Alpine Skiing: Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics:
My wife is Russian, so I was thrilled to find this coin from the Russian Federation.
I am from Colorado and skied hard for many years, thats why I chose the alpine skiing coin.
It was a perfect choice for both of us.
We will keep this coin as a keepsake, never to resale.

Comments about 1 oz Sterling Silver 3-Roubles Coin - Alpine Skiing: Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics:
Great quality of design and craftsmanship.
The face value is only 3 roubles, but it has little to do with intrinsic value. The face value is always lower than the selling (market) price, otherwise there will be an arbitrage condition. Probably there is also room for a possible future denomination, i.e. when extra zeros on legal tenders disappear.

Comments about 1 oz Sterling Silver 3-Roubles Coin - Alpine Skiing: Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics:
Don't freak out over the 3 ruble value. Would anyone trade in a silver eagle for one dollar, when the weight of the silver is worth much more?
I love the coin. Will it raise in value, who knows?
I love the coin for what it is.
Russian federation coin, nice wooden box, and a beautiful design.

Comments about 1 oz Sterling Silver 3-Roubles Coin - Alpine Skiing: Sochi 2014 Winter Olympics:
Price shown does not tell you that HST not included. Add another $14 to price. For sterling silver makes it very pricey for a 3 rouble coin or $0.09 Canadain. Would not buy another of this series.
