| Additional information |
This coin commemorates the Battle of Stalingrad, which ended on February 2, 1943, when Field Marshal Paulus surrendered the remnants of the German 6th Army — the first surrender of an entire German field army in the war. The encirclement operation, codenamed Uranus, trapped roughly 330,000 Axis troops. Issued fifty years after that surrender, it belongs to a CBR series marking World War II turning points released through the early 1990s, when Russia was simultaneously dismantling the Soviet state that had won those battles.
