This pin was produced for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games in Sochi, Russia, and is the second of the Russian hockey skate equipment pins produced. The pin has a value of $9.00 USD. March 12, 2014 post script note: Here is an eagle-eye observation to pin collectors: notice that the "ru" in this early release pin is outlined in blue, as opposed to being entirely blue letters as is the "sochi" and "2014". In the later version of this pin released during the 2014 Games, the "ru" is entirely blue like the rest of the letters. There are also versions of this pin with both the Canadian and United States flags, as opposed to the Russian flag shown in this version of the pin. So, which version do you have in your collection?
