| Additional information |
Transnistria's commemorative silver program has long used numismatic issues as instruments of political identity, and this piece fits squarely in that pattern. The Hero City series honors Soviet-designated "Hero Cities" — a status awarded by the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet to cities that demonstrated extraordinary resistance during the Great Patriotic War. Leningrad's designation came in 1945, recognizing the 872-day siege that killed an estimated 800,000 civilians, largely through starvation.
The Transnistrian Republican Bank issues coins unrecognized by any UN member state, making KM catalog attribution an unusual formality for a currency with no international standing.
