More than 56 million coins, valued at 245 million rubles, were returned to circulation during the Coin Week event that concluded in October 2025. According to organizers, this is the highest total since the first Coin Week was held in 2023.

Since its inception, the five Coin Week events have resulted in over 215 million coins being brought back into use, with a combined value approaching 956 million rubles. The total weight of these returned coins exceeds 962 tonnes, which is comparable to the annual output of a Moscow-based cash center operated by the Bank of Russia.

Some banks and retail outlets continue to accept coins for exchange or deposit even after Coin Week has ended. Information about participating locations and their coin acceptance policies can be found at монетнаянеделя.рф.

Organizers also remind citizens that it is not necessary to wait for special events like Coin Week to return coins; they can be used at any time for purchases or payments.
