Comment
CoA:Interesting fact
The Yalta Conference coin was issued to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Yalta Conference, which was held in 1945 during World War II. The conference was attended by the leaders of the three main Allied powers: President Franklin D. Roosevelt of the United States, Prime Minister Winston Churchill of the United Kingdom, and Premier Joseph Stalin of the Soviet Union. The coin's design features an image of Elizabeth II, the reigning monarch of the United Kingdom at the time, along with an image of the Yalta Conference. The coin's mintage was limited to 10,000 pieces, making it a rare and collectible item for coin enthusiasts.
