Kyiv, a city with over 1500 years of history, is Ukraine's capital and a modern metropolis. St. Michael the Archangel, symbolizing hope and protection, is a pivotal part of Kyiv's identity and proudly depicted on the city's emblem. Since the start of the Russian invasion in 2022, over 100 missiles have been fired at the city, causing widespread destruction. In solidarity with Ukraine, MINT XXI introduces the 'St. Michael: The Patron of Kyiv' coin, featuring a high-relief depiction of the Archangel Michael, adorned with gilding on the trident. The 5 oz collectible serves as a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there is always a place for the light of hope. All profits will be donated to support Ukrainian military and humanitarian efforts.
