The National Bank of Ukraine reports this.
The obverse of the coin will depict the coat of arms of Ukraine, composed of symbolic hearts, and the reverse will depict the silhouette of a Ukrainian soldier with a “yellow-blue” heart.
“The volunteer movement in Ukraine united society, creating an effective network of public initiatives and associations that took upon themselves to solve the most pressing and most urgent problems of the country in difficult times. Volunteering is a manifestation of the ability to consolidate society, humanism and service to the people,” the NBU said in a statement.
Let us remember that in March 2014, at the very beginning of the war in Donbass, Ukrainian volunteers began to raise funds for the army. It was possible to “donate” for a uniform to Ukrainian soldiers by sending an SMS, the price of which was 5 UAH.
