| Additional information |
Ukraine introduced the 5 hryvnia coin denomination in 2023–2024 as part of a broader redenomination of circulating coinage, with the karbovanets name deliberately revived to signal a break from Russian monetary nomenclature — karbovanets having served as Ukraine's transitional currency immediately after independence in 1991–1996. The iron composition reflects wartime material constraints and a deliberate move away from nickel-clad steel, driven partly by supply chain disruptions following Russia's full-scale invasion in February 2022.
