| Obverse description | The obverse presents a dual architectural composition in the central field: the domes of St. Sophia's Cathedral in Kyiv are rendered in relief against a smooth background defined by the outline of St. George's Cathedral in Istanbul. The years 988 and 2019 flank the central dome, marking the millennium-long span of Ukrainian ecclesiastical history. Ukraine's small coat of arms (trident) appears in the lower portion of the field, accompanied by the denomination inscription УКРАЇНА / 100 / ГРИВЕНЬ. A bold semicircular legend encircles the upper portion of the design, reading ВІД ХРЕЩЕННЯ ДО ТОМОСУ. ТИСЯЧОЛІТНІЙ ШЛЯХ УКРАЇНСЬКОЇ ЦЕРКВИ, translating as 'From the adoption of Christianity to the Tomos: the millennium-long journey of the Ukrainian Church.' |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a figural scene in which Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I is shown signing the Tomos of Autocephaly, rendered against a smooth field. A semicircular legend in the upper portion reads «БЛАГОСЛОВЛЯЄМО ТА ПРОГОЛОШУЄМО ПРАВОСЛАВНУ ЦЕРКВУ В УКРАЇНІ АВТОКЕФАЛЬНОЮ», translating as 'We bless the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and declare it autocephalous.' Below the central figure, a two-line inscription identifies the subject as ВСЕЛЕНСЬКИЙ ПАТРІАРХ / ВАРФОЛОМІЙ (Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I). The composition combines portraiture and historical narrative in a commemorative artistic style befitting the ecclesiastical significance of the event. |
