| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed frontal view of the Academy's historic Neo-Renaissance main building, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field, with ornate arched windows, decorative facades, and onion-domed corner towers prominently featured. Above the architectural motif, the large stylized numeral 100 with the word РОКІВ (years) below it commemorates the centenary of the institution. In the lower portion of the field, flanked by scrolled ornamental volutes and the founding and commemorative dates 1917 and 2017, the full institutional name НАЦІОНАЛЬНА АКАДЕМІЯ ОБРАЗОТВОРЧОГО МИСТЕЦТВА І АРХІТЕКТУРИ is inscribed in bold decorative Cyrillic lettering. |

| Additional information |
The National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture in Kyiv traces its origins to 1917, making this coin a centennial issue. Founded in the revolutionary chaos of the same year the Ukrainian People's Republic declared independence, the institution survived Soviet reorganization — it was folded into various state art structures before re-emerging under its current name following Ukrainian independence in 1991.
Part of Ukraine's long-running commemorative silver program, which has produced hundreds of institutional and cultural issues since the mid-1990s, making KM numbers in the 800s unremarkable for the series by this point.
