The Bank of Russia has commissioned the Saint Petersburg and Moscow Mints, branches of Goznak, to produce five commemorative coins celebrating the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War. This significant milestone highlights the enduring legacy of the conflict and the valor of those who fought.
Alexander Baklanov, a People's Artist of the Russian Federation and the Head Artist at Goznak's Design Center, emphasized the extensive effort that went into creating these coins, which took approximately a year to complete. He noted that to truly appreciate the beauty of a coin, one must engage with it physically. The one-kilogram gold coin, for example, reveals its intricate design as the viewing angle shifts, causing the light threads of the fireworks depicted to change position and shimmer.
The coins embody the triumphant spirit of victory and national pride through classic relief and advanced laser matting technology.
The technical specifications for the gold coin are as follows:
- Weight of the precious metal in purity: 1000 g
- Diameter: 100 mm
- Quality: “proof-like”
- Mintage: 50 pieces
- Artists: Alexander Baklanov, Andrey Brynza
- Modeling: Alexander Baklanov, Alexandra Chernova
- Minting: Saint Petersburg Mint – Branch of Goznak
In contrast, the silver coin features a different artistic approach. The design employs two tones, with a black background and a white relief foreground, illustrating the Soviet Banner atop the Reichstag, symbolizing the triumph of good over evil. Baklanov expressed the desire to present a fresh and emotionally resonant concept that would captivate viewers.
The silver coin with a face value of 100 roubles showcases a relief image of Soviet soldiers raising the banner against the backdrop of a devastated Berlin, created using laser matting technology. The coin also features a logo celebrating the 80th anniversary of the victory.

The remaining three coins highlight the emblem commemorating the 80th anniversary of Victory, designed to look visually striking across different sizes.
