1991 ЛМД 3 Rbl Gagarin Monument, DCAM PR69DCAM 认证号42851965, PCGS号408173

Purchased April 21, 2021 received May 13, 2021 from Riga Latvia. I've always been fascinated by space exploration. Yuri Gagarin was a Russian Cosmonaut who was the first man in space on April 12 of 1961. Kennedy would deliver his speech inspiring America into the space race on September 12, of 1962. This coin actually shows a 42 meter tall monument in Gagarin Square on Leninsky Ave. It's made of 12 tons of titanium. It was built in 1980 for the Olympic Games. The inscription reads 30 years of human spaceflight.
