Square and unusual-shaped coins of Ukraine — complete list

Most coins are round, but the NBU also issues coins of unusual shapes: square (“Digital State”, “Pectoral”, the “Cossack Regalia” set), hexagonal (the set for the 100th anniversary of the National Academy of Sciences: “Era of Technologies”, “Era of Changes”, “Era of Peace”, “Human, Time, Space”), egg-shaped like a pysanka (“Easter Joy. Pysanka”), bell-shaped (the “Shchedryk – Carol of the Bells” set) and oval (the “Mariinskyi Palace” medal). There are also concave coins whose surface is dished like a bowl: “Bohdan Khmelnytskyi”, “St Nicholas Church”, “Kosiv Painting”.

An unusual shape makes a coin stand out in a collection and usually reflects its theme. This selection lists all such Ukrainian coins with mintages and current prices, and it grows as new coins are issued.
