Comment
Date of issue: 02 NOV 2009Note that the region is called Kirov Oblast, not Kirovsk Oblast.
The confusion in some sources is related to the fact that the adjective Кировская (Kirovskaya), being the Russian name of the region, can be derived both from Kirov (a large city) and Kirovsk (a small town in Leningrad Region, as well as some other towns and settlements).
Interesting fact
The Kirov Region 10 Roubles coin from Russia features a unique design that showcases the region's rich history and culture. The coin's obverse side features an image of a historic building in the city of Kirov, while the reverse side depicts a stylized image of a bear, which is a symbol of strength and resilience in Russian culture. The use of a bimetallic material, with a copper-nickel center in a brass ring, adds to the coin's unique look and feel.
