| Additional information |
This piece belongs to Russia's long-running series commemorating the 1941–45 "Great Patriotic War," the Soviet designation for the Eastern Front conflict that killed an estimated 27 million Soviet citizens — a figure that remained officially suppressed or understated for decades after the war. The Bank of Russia has issued coins under this thematic umbrella continuously since the 1990s, with individual releases tied to specific battles, unit types, or anniversaries.
By 2018, the series had grown large enough that secondary market premiums over melt are modest for most issues. Collectors focused on the full run increasingly treat individual pieces as type coins rather than standalone acquisitions.
