Obverse descriptionAbove is Ukraine’s small coat of arms, below which is the coin’s issue year – 2017; there are circular legends: НАЦІОНАЛЬНИЙ БАНК УКРАЇНИ (National Bank of Ukraine) (above) and П’ЯТЬ ГРИВЕНЬ (five hryvnias) (below); to the right is the mint mark of the NBU Banknote Printing and Minting Works; in the center is a conventionalized composition that symbolizes the oblast: the Holy Trinity Cathedral, an 18th century unique wooden building built without the use of nails; to the right of the cathedral are conventionalized objects that represent the region’s focus on the construction of space rockets and metallurgical production – a satellite against the backdrop of starts and an excavator bucket, under which is a flower – a fragment from the Petrykivka painting style – and brushes; to the left of the cathedral are ears of wheat, which stand for the oblast’s great agricultural potential.
