Honorary Title "City Of Military Glory".

Christophe · 09-21-2012, 01:06 PM

On 2 September 2012, Vladimir Putin conferred the Title of City of Military Glory (Город воинской славы) to the cities of Maloyaroslavets and Mozhaisk.

Who has ever heard about this Title ?

And have a look at the manner the veteran wears his "crab". ;)

There are quite a few of these Cities of Military Glory. I don't know what the full implications of the title are but there are quite a few of these cities dotted about now. No doubt lots of commemorative tourist pieces too.

Actually, lots of commemorative 10-ruble coins :D

To buy the commemoratives in their special presentation sets.

Nope, they are circulating Cu-Ni 10-rouble coins.

Sounds like a bargain.

Commemorative coins for encouraging collecting is a great way to demonetise currency in hard times.
