Talai Foundation created an alloy from coins and "SVO" items for a military monument in Moscow
A monument "Living Memory of Grateful Generations" is being created on Poklonnaya Hill in Moscow, based on an alloy made from a large number of coins — about 10–12 million. They have been collected for five years, with the collection and remelting efforts directed by the Belarusian fund of Aleksei Talai. Moreover, they decided not to limit themselves to just coins.

"An important point is that this alloy contains 10–12 million coins, fragments from the "SVO" fields, and crucifixes of fallen guys," Aleksei Talai explained, detailing what the alloy is made of.
The final stage of alloy production took place in the Brest region, where a concluding ceremony was held before the material was sent to Moscow.
The project itself has been underway since 2021 and already includes several monuments. The first appeared in Minsk in 2022 (using about 130 thousand coins), the second in Brest in 2024 (about 500 thousand coins). One stage of the memorial was also previously opened in Moscow, which used about 5 million coins, but the new alloy is expected to become part of the complex's further development.
