Interesting fact

The interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the first joint Soviet-Mongolian space mission, Soyuz 39-Saljut 6, which took place in 1981. The coin features an image of the Soyuz spacecraft and the Saljut 6 space station on one side, and the Mongolian coat of arms on the other. It was minted in a limited quantity of 25,000 pieces and is considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists and space enthusiasts.
