On April 9, 2025, the Bank of Russia will introduce a series of commemorative coins to honor the 80th anniversary of the Soviet People's victory in the Great Patriotic War of 1941–1945. The collection consists of five different coins: a 3-ruble silver coin, a 100-ruble silver coin, a 50-ruble gold coin, a 10,000-ruble gold coin, and a 50-ruble base metal coin.
The precious metal coins are designed with specific details. The 3-ruble silver coin has a fine metal content of 31.1 grams and a fineness of 925/1,000, whereas the 100-ruble silver coin contains 1,000 grams of silver with the same fineness. These coins are round with diameters of 39.0 mm and 100.0 mm, respectively. The gold coins include a 50-ruble piece with 7.78 grams of fine metal at a fineness of 999/1,000 and a 10,000-ruble coin containing 1,000 grams of gold, also at 999/1,000. Their diameters are 22.6 mm and 100.0 mm, respectively.
Both the obverse and reverse of the coins feature a relief rim around their circumference. The obverse bears the National Coat of Arms of the Russian Federation, along with inscriptions for the Russian Federation, the Bank of Russia, the denomination, and the year of issuance. Additionally, it includes the chemical symbol of the metal, the fineness, the mint trademark, and the fine metal content. Uniquely, the obverse of the 10,000-ruble gold coin includes the coin's order number.
The reverse sides of the coins depict various commemorative designs. For the 3-ruble silver coin, there is a relief image of the 80th Anniversary celebration logo against a backdrop of celebratory fireworks, which have been laser-treated for a matte finish. This coin has a corrugated edge and comes in a proof quality, with a mintage of 3,000 pieces.
The 100-ruble silver coin displays Soviet soldiers raising the Soviet flag over Berlin's Reichstag, accompanied by the anniversary logo. This design has also been laser-treated and is mint in proof-like quality, with only 150 coins being made.
The 50-ruble gold coin features the celebration logo against fireworks, also laser-treated and proof-minted, with a mintage of 1,000 coins. Meanwhile, the 10,000-ruble gold coin showcases Soviet soldiers removing enemy flags near the Red Square backdrop, with its edge design and trademark. This version is proof-like minted, with a limited mintage of 50 coins.
The base metal coin in the collection measures 28.0 mm in diameter and is comprised of a disc and an outer ring. The coin's edge is corrugated, containing two inscriptions of "50 РУБЛЕЙ" separated by asterisks. Its reverse features the commemorative logo and a laurel wreath.
These coins, issued as legal tender of the Russian Federation, are required to be accepted for all forms of payment at their face value.
