Interesting fact

The Iasi-Kishinev Operation, which this coin commemorates, was a major military operation during World War II that took place in August-September 1944. It was a successful offensive by the Soviet Union's Red Army against the German Army Group South, resulting in the liberation of the cities of Iasi and Kishinev (now Chisinau, Moldova) and significant losses for the German forces. The operation was a significant turning point in the war and paved the way for the Soviet advance into Eastern Europe.
