The small State Emblem of Ukraine, framed by guelder-rose sprays, is centered within the beaded circumference. Above the emblem is the year "1996." The circumferential inscriptions read: "НАЦІОНАЛЬНИЙ БАНК УКРАЇНИ" above and "200000 КАРБОВАНЦІВ" below in two lines.
Bohdan Khmelnytsky's monument in Kyiv's Sophia Square is pictured. Circling it are the inscriptions: "БОГДАН" on the left, "ХМЕЛЬНИЦЬКИЙ" on the right, and "1595-1657" over the pedestal.
