The Coin Week event in Russia, running from October 7 to October 20, 2024, offers a convenient opportunity for individuals to exchange coins for banknotes. This year, the initiative expands beyond banks to include chain stores as locations where people can deposit coins into their bank accounts.
A total of approximately 4,000 offices across 159 banks and over 3,500 stores are participating in this nationwide effort. For more information regarding specific terms and participant addresses, individuals are encouraged to visit the website монетнаянеделя.рф.
Reflecting on previous success, during the spring event held from May 20 to June 2, Russian residents contributed over 31 million coins back into circulation. This resulted in a total of ₽135 million being reintroduced into the economy.
