| Reverse description | The central field features a boldly rendered bull facing left in a stylized artistic manner, representing the zodiac sign of Taurus. To the left of the bull, the astrological symbol for Taurus (♉) is prominently displayed in the field. The background is composed of vertical linear elements reminiscent of star columns, interspersed with multiple four-pointed star motifs scattered throughout the field. The Cyrillic inscription ТЕЛЕЦЬ (meaning 'Taurus') is engraved vertically along the right side of the design. |

| Additional information |
Part of Ukraine's ongoing zodiac series, this 2006 issue marks the National Bank's sustained commitment to collector-oriented silver throughout the post-independence period. The Taurus coin belongs to a twelve-part run, each struck to the same specification, making the set more coherent as an ensemble than as individual pieces.
Mintages for the Ukrainian zodiac issues were tightly controlled — typically in the low thousands — and secondary market premiums reflect that, particularly for the earlier signs in the sequence.
