Description
Kyiv, a city with over 1500 years of history, is Ukraine’s capital and a
modern metropolis. St. Michael the Archangel, symbolizing hope and
protection, is a pivotal part of Kyiv’s identity and proudly depicted on
the city’s emblem.
Since the start of the Russian invasion in 2022, over 100 missiles have
been fired at the city, causing widespread destruction. In solidarity with
Ukraine, Niue introduces the ‘St. Michael: The Patron of Kyiv’ coin,
featuring a high-relief depiction of the Archangel Michael, adorned with
gilding on the trident. The 5 oz collectible serves as a reminder that even
in the darkest of times, there is always
a place for the light of hope.
