Ukraine Banknotes Catalog

The history of banknotes in Ukraine reflects the country's rich and complex history. Since its independence in 1991, Ukraine has undergone several changes in its currency, going through different designs and denominations that represent its culture and national identity.

Current banknotes in circulation

The official currency of Ukraine is the hryvna, introduced in 1996. Current banknotes feature portraits of important historical figures on the obverse and landmarks on the reverse. The denominations in circulation range from 1 to 1000 grivnas, with the 1000 grivna bill, depicting Vladimir the Great, being the highest value. These banknotes are characterized by advanced security measures and colorful designs reflecting Ukrainian identity.

Old banknotes and milestones in Ukrainian banknote production

Prior to the hryvna, Ukraine used karbovanets as a transitional currency between 1992 and 1996. These banknotes, known as coupons, were a response to post-Soviet hyperinflation. A significant milestone in Ukrainian notafilia was the introduction of the hryvna in 1996, which marked the economic stabilization of the country. In 2014, due to the conflict in eastern Ukraine, commemorative banknotes were issued to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of poet Taras Shevchenko, reflecting the importance of culture in the country's monetary identity.
