Coin 10 kopek 1996

The coin was struck with different dies, so its price depends on the variety: common ones are worth about face value, rare ones up to UAH 30.

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”.
