The sign is dedicated to the peasant reform of 1861 and the abolition of serfdom in the Russian Empire. It has a deep symbolic meaning, which is embedded in its elements: Introduction of self-government: The sign represents the granting of personal freedom to millions of peasants. After the Manifesto of Alexander II, former serfs received the right to unite in rural societies and choose their head - a village chief. The sign served as a state symbol of the legitimacy and power of this elected person. The inscription on the reverse side of the “19th of FEBRUARY 1861” indicates the exact day when Emperor Alexander II signed the Manifesto for the liberation of the peasants. The initiator of the reform: Wenzel with the letter "A" and the number II on the back is a personal vein of Emperor Alexander II Nikolaevich, who went down in history with the official epithet "Liberator" precisely for carrying out this reform.
