Date of issue 03-04-1995Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 55th anniversary of the Katyn, Miednoje, and Charkow massacres, which were a series of mass executions of Polish officers and intelligentsia that were carried out by the Soviet Union in 1940. The coin features an image of a soldier and a civilian victim, surrounded by barbed wire and a Soviet tank, to symbolize the tragic events that took place during that time.
