100 Hryven - 250 Rubles Kherson

Issued following Ukraine's partial recapture of Kherson Oblast in November 2022, this coin commemorates a region that remained — at the time of striking — only partially under Ukrainian control, with Russian forces still holding the eastern bank of the Dnipro. The dual denomination pairing Ukrainian hryvnias with Russian rubles is a direct political statement, asserting that Kherson's pre-occupation monetary identity is inseparable from its Ukrainian future.

Silver-plated copper-nickel was the practical choice for a wartime commemorative economy running significant fiscal strain.
