The 2024 Ukrainian silver commemorative coin “Pliontanism” (Ivan Marchuk) celebrates the unique artistic technique of one of Ukraine’s greatest living painters, Ivan Marchuk. Struck in fine silver (Ag 925) by the National Bank of Ukraine, this 10-hryvnia coin honours the artist’s signature style known as pliontanism — a method that intertwines thousands of fine strokes to create a lace-like illusion of depth and dynamic light.

The obverse features a fragment of Marchuk’s 1992 painting Awakening, symbolising light, energy, and rebirth. A stylised solar motif surrounds the national emblem of Ukraine, alongside inscriptions denoting the metal (Ag 925), purity (31.1 g), denomination (10 hryvnias), and year of issue (2024).

The reverse portrays a girl with a blue-and-yellow ribbon — a vivid symbol of Ukrainian spirit and renewal — standing against a blooming homeland landscape.
This coin comes in a presentation box (case) and serves as a tribute to Ivan Marchuk’s artistic legacy, combining modern art and national symbolism in precious metal form.

This collectible silver coin is a remarkable investment-grade issue for numismatists and art enthusiasts alike — blending fine Ukrainian art, national identity, and the prestige of an official NBU release.
