Coins of Ukraine
This commemorative coin conveys the idea of the issue through symbols, relief and an expressive composition that is a pleasure to examine. The subject and design details underscore the theme: dedicated to the KrAZ-6322 "Soldier," a multipurpose all-wheel-drive vehicle designed to transport personnel, various cargoes of military units, special forces units and the UN peacekeeping forces. The coin belongs to the "Armed Forces of Ukraine" series.
Obverse
The obverse is built as a coherent stage design, where state emblems are combined with the technical imagery of the issue’s theme. On the right, against a mirror background, is the Small State Coat of Arms of Ukraine, beneath which is the inscription UKRAINE; against a matte background is a stylized engineering drawing of the vehicle from two angles. Below is the denomination 10 / HRYVNIAS; on the left, against a mirror background, is the year of minting 2019; on the right is the logo of the Banknote and Coin Mint of the National Bank of Ukraine. Careful relief and balanced fields lend the piece collector-grade expressiveness. The state emblem sets an official tone within the composition and balances the elements. The hallmark of the NBU Banknote and Coin Mint emphasizes the official origin of the issue.
Reverse
The reverse reveals the main image of the issue in expressive relief and a dynamic composition. It depicts the KrAZ-6322 "Soldier" moving upward and leaving tire tracks behind; above, in two lines, is the inscription KrAZ-6322 "SOLDIER." Careful relief and balanced fields lend the piece collector-grade expressiveness. In the texture of the field, relief transitions are visible: from fine strokes to deeper plateaus that beautifully catch the light as the coin is turned.
Historical context
The coin’s subject is tied to an event or image important to Ukrainian memory. The KrAZ-6322 "Soldier" is a basic vehicle of Ukraine’s Armed Forces that can serve as a ballast prime mover for transporting aircraft at airfields, artillery systems and more, and is distinguished by exceptional off-road performance, maneuverability and speed in the most demanding conditions; the coin was put into circulation on 26 December 2019. Such issues become little "time capsules": they preserve the emotion of the moment, a cultural marker and recognizable symbolism for future generations. A fitting gift and a warm accent for any collection. It fits a collection well and looks festive in a case.
