Comment

This set, which consists of four silver commemorative coins, celebrates Cossack regalia – attributes of power. These regalia are associated with a heroic age of Ukrainian history – an age that has become an inexhaustible source of national dignity, love for freedom and state-building aspirations. Over the centuries, historical tradition has shaped the list of the Zaporozhian Army’s regalia. These include a flag, a mace, a bunchuk (a pole with circularly placed horse tail hairs arranged at the top), a seal, a pernach (a type of flanged mace), kettledrums, surma-horns, and an ink-pot. Hetman seals – integral attributes of the power of hetmans Hryhorii Loboda, Bohdan Khmelnytskyi, Petro Doroshenko and Ivan Skoropadskyi – provided the foundation of the coin set, showing the Cossack age from its birth to its dusk, while also symbolizing powerful historical periods. This set aims to draw people’s attention to the heroic Cossack age, which, for Ukrainians, still remains a source of spiritual feeling and valor inspiring them to defend their land from external enemies.
