| Additional information |
This piece belongs to the Monnaie de Paris "Monuments du Monde" series, which launched in 2008 as France's answer to the growing collector market for large-format silver issues tied to UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The Kremlin received UNESCO designation in 1990, the same year Soviet authority over the site effectively ended as a political reality.
At 163.8 grams of .950 fine silver, the dies were working under considerable pressure — surface inconsistencies on the field are common on examples from this series and are a production characteristic, not post-mint damage.
