Additional information

Voronkovo is a small village in the Slobodzeya district, and the Church of the Assumption of the Virgin there is among the oldest Orthodox structures still standing in the Transnistrian region. This coin was issued during a period when the Transnistrian Republican Bank was actively building a numismatic program almost from scratch — the breakaway state had only declared independence in 1990, and establishing a distinct monetary and cultural identity through commemorative coinage was a deliberate policy priority throughout the early 2000s.

KM#16 places this among the earliest entries in the Transnistrian commemorative silver series.
