| Obverse description | The brass ring bears the legend БАНК РОССИИ (BANK OF RUSSIA) along the upper rim and the year of issue 2015 at the lower rim, flanked left and right by stylized plant sprigs extending onto the central disc. The copper-nickel disc displays the denomination 10 РУБЛЕЙ in bold numerals at centre, the interior of the digit '0' incorporating a latent image security feature alternating between the numeral '10' and the abbreviation РУБ when viewed at varying angles. The Saint Petersburg Mint mark (СПМД) appears in the lower portion of the disc. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 70th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, this coin belongs to a commemorative program the Bank of Russia has returned to repeatedly since the 1990s. The "liberation from fascism" framing is a deliberate choice — Soviet historiography consistently cast the war as a collective sacrifice by fraternal peoples rather than a purely Russian national struggle, and post-Soviet Russian commemoratives have largely preserved that narrative vocabulary.
Bimetallic 10-rouble pieces of this type circulate freely alongside everyday currency, which means survivors in pristine condition are genuinely harder to find than mintage figures alone would suggest.
