| Reverse description | The reverse features a detailed botanical depiction of Cyclamen coum (Kuznetzovii), rendered with naturalistic precision, showing the characteristic reflexed petals and rounded foliage of this protected plant species. The Cyrillic inscription ЦИКЛАМЕН КОСЬКИЙ (КУЗНЕЦОВА) arcs above the central design, while the scientific designation CYCLAMEN COUM MILL. S. L. appears in Latin script below, providing both the vernacular and taxonomic identification. The composition emphasizes the delicate floral form against an uncluttered field, consistent with Ukraine's commemorative series celebrating endangered flora. |

| Additional information |
Cyclamen coum is native to the Crimean peninsula and Black Sea coastal regions — territory that, in early 2014, was the subject of Russian military annexation. Ukraine's National Bank had already scheduled this botanical series coin before the crisis; it went ahead with the issue regardless, in the same weeks that Crimea's status was being redetermined by force.
