I didn't know I had this
It was in one of my "Misc" binders with a lot of medals. I thought it was a Russian medal, put it in the binder and forgot it. I remember now that happened about 10 years ago. I have looked at it many times since but never LOOKED at it.
So what it actually is, is a coin, sort of. It is one of those type of coins some have a love-hate relationship with.
They love to hate them
It is a Russian 3-Rouble Proof only issue of 1995. Y#381
There were 200,000 of them minted so it might be worth up to $10 US these days
It is copper-nickel and it commemorates the capture of Vienna in 1945....which is why I have it I suppose. It has Saint Stephan’s Cathedral in the background (another plus). That building is always recognizable.
