The 2 kopek coin is a Ukrainian change coin, put into circulation on 2 September 1996 together with the hryvnia.
Since 1 October 2019 the 2 kopek coin is no longer legal tender and has been withdrawn from circulation.

The 1994 2 kopiyky was struck in aluminium. Two varieties with the same obverse occur in circulation: 1АА, whose cluster 1 on the reverse has a stem, and the slightly scarcer 1ВА without it (UAH 20–50). The real rarity is the mule 2(10 к.)АА: its obverse was struck with a die from the 1994 10 kopiyok, and because that design is smaller the coin has a noticeably wide rim. Such a coin fetches up to UAH 12,000.
