3 Roubles the Order of the Victory

The Order of Victory (Орден Победы) was the highest military decoration of the Soviet Union, awarded only twice — to Marshals Zhukov, Vasilevsky, and Rokossovsky, and to Stalin himself. Eisenhower and Montgomery each received one as Allied commanders. The postwar political rehabilitation cycles meant Zhukov's award was briefly revoked under Khrushchev before being restored posthumously. Russia has issued commemoratives tied to this decoration across multiple years; this 2022 entry falls in a long-running series marking state awards and appears under the Bank of Russia's standard collector program for such honors.
