10 Hryven Lviv in UNESCO

Lviv's Old Town was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998, recognized for its medieval street plan and layered architectural legacy drawing from Polish, Armenian, Jewish, and Austro-Hungarian traditions across several centuries. Ukraine's commemorative coinage program frequently paired UNESCO designations with silver issues, and this 2008 release followed that pattern by a decade.

The Zahrebа reference places this within a well-documented Ukrainian commemorative series that has attracted specialist collectors since the late 1990s.
