| Additional information |
Georgy Zakharov (1909–1945) was a Soviet air force general who commanded the 2nd Air Army during some of the most intense aerial operations on the Eastern Front, including the Kursk campaign in 1943. He died in a non-combat plane crash in January 1945, months before the victory he had fought toward. This coin belongs to Belarus's ongoing series honoring Soviet military commanders with direct ties to Belarusian territory, issued in the years surrounding the 65th anniversary of the end of the Great Patriotic War.
