How to read the code: digits stand for the obverse die (the side with the trident), capital letters for the reverse die (the side with the denomination), the final letter or digit for the edge type. Codes follow I. Kolomiiets’ catalogue “Standard Coins of Ukraine”.

The 25 kopek coin is a Ukrainian change coin, put into circulation on 2 September 1996 together with the hryvnia.
Since 1 October 2020 the 25 kopek coin is no longer legal tender and has been withdrawn from circulation.
The ITK catalogue lists eight varieties of the 1994 25 kopiyok, but none is expensive: the most valuable, 1ААк with large berries and coarse edge reeding, fetches UAH 30–50, and the similar 1ААм with fine reeding UAH 10–20. The other varieties sell at face value or for a few hryvnias. So with the 1994 25 kopiyok, only the large berries on the reverse and the edge are worth checking.
