Aanvullende informatie

Api was the supreme earth goddess of the Scythians, a nomadic Iranian-speaking people who dominated the Pontic steppe from roughly the 7th to 3rd centuries BC — territory that maps almost precisely onto modern Ukraine. The coin belongs to Ukraine's ongoing "Gods of Ancient Scythia" bullion series, issued partly as a response to growing academic and national interest in reclaiming Scythian heritage as distinctly Ukrainian rather than generically "ancient."

At 1.24 g of .9999 fine gold, these are among the smallest bullion pieces in Ukraine's output, struck at the Luhansk Mint before that facility's fate was sealed by the 2014 conflict.
