Special facts

Moscow is a Hero City: in the Battle of Moscow in the autumn of 1941 the German advance was halted, and in December the Red Army went over to the counteroffensive. On 7 November 1941 a parade was held on Red Square, from which the troops went straight to the front. This 2-rouble coin honouring the Hero City of Moscow was issued in 2000 for the 55th anniversary of Victory.
