| Obverse description | The obverse features the large numeral '5' prominently at center, flanked by stylized floral and foliate decorative elements in low relief. Below the denomination, the Cyrillic legend 'РУБЛЕЙ' appears in bold, with 'БАНК РОССИИ' (Bank of Russia) inscribed beneath in a smaller font. The date '2016' is placed at the bottom of the field. The mint mark 'ММД' (Moscow Mint) appears within the composition near the denomination. The overall design is clean and utilitarian, characteristic of Russian commemorative circulation coinage of this era. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Bank of Russia's long-running "Cities of Military Glory" and historic capitals series, this issue commemorates Bratislava, whose capture by Soviet forces in April 1945 was completed in roughly two days of urban fighting. The operation, conducted by the 2nd Ukrainian Front under Malinovsky, cut off German forces retreating from Vienna and effectively ended Axis control over Slovakia.
