Additional information

Transnistria's commemorative silver program has long served the dual purpose of generating hard currency revenue and asserting institutional legitimacy for a state unrecognized by any United Nations member. This piece honoring the Ministry of Internal Affairs falls squarely into that pattern — the MVD being one of the few functioning organs of government that Tiraspol has maintained continuously since the 1992 war with Moldova.

Struck at the St. Petersburg Mint under contract, as most Transnistrian issues of this period were.
