Does anyone have any info on this coin, my Russian is non-existant...

weighs in at 7.8 grams , 999+ gold.

Nice looking coins featuring George slaying the Dragon?? scene.
Double headed eagle on the obverse.

But I can make out
Bank of Russia under the eagle
 
As I'm from Russia I can help you with inside info ;-) It is the only gold bullion coin we have in Russia. It is 1\ 4 ounce. Don't have experience for sending it from Russia abroad though.

Would like to correct: it's not the only gold bullion coin of modern Russia since there are rectangular-shaped bullion coins related to Olympic games in Sochi 2013:

Also be careful when buying Saint George The Victorious gold coins since some of them have 'red (copper) spots' because of issues during minting:

In 2016 the coat of arms on all Russian coins will change. Antient, very beautiful coat of arms of Russian state will replace the coat of arms of Russian Central Bank.
I'm waiting with impatience 2016 silver and gold russian Saint Victorious with new coat of arms :)
Made a video on this topic.
Think it will be interesting to the forum members!
