| Additional information |
Ukraine began issuing Olympic sports commemoratives in the early 2000s partly as a nation-building exercise — the country had competed under its own flag only since the 1996 Atlanta Games, and the series gave the National Bank a recurring platform to assert that independence through hard currency. The boxing issue sits in a broader run of 2 hryvni sports coins that collectors tend to pursue as a complete set rather than individually, which keeps single-piece demand modest.
