Old Ukrainian 5 kopecks are of heightened interest among collectors, as some of them can reach significant prices. For example, the 1992 coin of variety 1.1ААк can cost between 4000 and 10,000 hryvnias.

How to Distinguish Valuable Coins
Experts from the resource
“Coins-Berries”
explained that there are several features that can help distinguish valuable coins from others. In particular, pay attention to:
- the middle tooth of the trident – with a thickening at the top;
- the unit in the date – it has a tail;
- cluster No. 2 – in the shape of a right triangle;
- the edge with a large milling.
Rare Varieties
One reason for the high value of some 5 kopecks is related to errors at the mint. As specialists note, a small number of coins received a large milling on the edge. Such specimens are particularly desired among numismatists. If the edge has a fine milling, then this is variety 1.1ААм, which is encountered much more frequently and has no significant value.
