The right to a stable national currency is considered in the presented study as one of the types of economic rights of citizens, ensuring the realization of personal, political, social and other economic rights, since the stability of the national currency allows citizens and the state to plan the costs of implementing rights and guarantee the fulfillment of obligations assumed by the state. During the constitutional reform of 2020, the right in question received additional constitutional regulation, which requires scientific understanding. The purpose of the work is to determine the degree of influence of the constitutional reform of 2020 on the level of constitutional guarantee of the right to a stable national currency in the Russian Federation.
