| Additional information |
Ukraine's post-Soviet coinage program launched under considerable monetary stress — the hryvnia itself wasn't introduced until September 1996, replacing the interim karbovanets at a rate of 100,000 to one after years of catastrophic inflation. The 25 kopiiok denomination was part of the founding circulating set, and the aluminium bronze composition replaced an earlier magnetic steel version as production stabilized through the Luhansk and Kyiv mints.
The non-magnetic distinction separates this from the KM#2.1a steel-core pieces — a practical detail that matters when sorting mixed Ukrainian coinage. Extended across a twelve-year production run through 2013.
