Additional information

Transdniestria — the narrow strip of Soviet-nostalgic territory wedged between Moldova and Ukraine — has never received international recognition as a sovereign state, yet its Republican Bank has issued collector coinage since the early 1990s with remarkable consistency. This 25-rouble piece honors the Union of Women of Bendery, a civic organization in the city known alternately as Bender or Tighina depending on which side of the political divide you're standing on — the name itself a proxy for the unresolved 1992 war that split the region from Moldovan control.
