Honorary Title "City Of Military Glory".
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". ;) Ch. pic : kremlin.ru |

Re: Title of City of Military Glory
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.

Re: Title of City of Military Glory
Sounds like a bargain.
Commemorative coins for encouraging collecting is a great way to demonetise currency in hard times.
