Comment
The coin is dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the birth of Andrei Sheptytskyi (his unreligious name being Roman-Maria-Aleksander), a prominent cleric, political and public figure, philanthropist and the Metropolitan of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church, who contributed to the national self-preservation of the Ukrainian people. Sheptytskyi's self-sacrificing work reaching out for mutual understanding in the Christian world and building peace between the Eastern and Western Churches, his ecumenical ideas were well in advance of his time.Interesting fact
The Andrei Sheptytskyi coin was issued to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the birth of Andrei Sheptytskyi, a prominent Ukrainian religious leader and social activist. The coin's design features an image of Sheptytskyi on one side and the Ukrainian coat of arms on the other. The use of nickel brass (also known as German silver) for the coin's material is a nod to Sheptytskyi's efforts to promote Ukrainian culture and heritage.
