Comment
The commemorative coin is dedicated to one of the leading economic, scientific and cultural centres of the state – the city of Lviv. The first written reference to the city was made as far back as 1256. The city had been founded by the King Danylo of Halych and named after his son Lev. Since 1272 Lviv had been the capital of the principality of Halych and Volhynia.Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 750th anniversary of the city of Lviv, which is now located in Ukraine, but has been part of various empires and countries throughout its history, including the Kievan Rus', the Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia, the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The coin's design reflects the city's rich cultural heritage, featuring an image of the Lviv Opera House, which was built in the late 19th century and is considered one of the city's most iconic landmarks.
