5 ruble Russian banknote

The Russian five-ruble banknote was introduced in 1998 (replacing the old 5000 ruble note) and then discontinued in 2001 because of inflation. Until 2023, five-ruble notes were very hard to find in general circulation. The most prominent color of the note is light-green in the background.
