The Royal Canadian Mint issued on February 2, 2016 a 1 oz. Fine Silver Coloured Coin "Traditional Ukrainian Pysanka" with a low mintage of 4,000. This is the first-ever egg-shaped coin issued by the Royal Canadian Mint. Preorders were brisk and the coin sold out before the release date.
Designed by Canadian artist Ann Morash, this coin captures the intricate beauty of a pysanka. Every element on this Ukrainian Easter egg is rich with symbolic meaning, including the individual colours: yellow stands for youth and purity; red represents the joy and passion in life; green is the colour of spring, which brings hope and renewal; and black suggests the darkest time before dawn, and the idea of eternity.

On March 9, 2015 the National Bank of Ukraine introduced into circulation a newly designed 100-hryvnia banknote with a number of advanced international security features, including a transparent 'window' and an optically variable SPARK feature which changes color depending on the viewing angle.
The new note is the dominant yellow-olive color as with the previous version of the bill and is printed on paper substrate containing a watermark of Taras Shevchenko and electrotype 100. The obverse features a portrait of Ukrainian national poet Taras Shevchenko, a painter’s palette and brushes as a SPARK patch, and prose from his poem “Shall we ever meet again...”("Чи ми ще зійдемося знову") written in 1838.

"Ukrposhta" issued a personal postage stamp of Nadiya Savchenko which was mailed to her together with a letter expressing their support.
"We are very worried about the fate of our Hope, because she is an example for all of us. As Shevchenko said "Boritesia - you will win!". She's not just a pilot and our compatriot, first of all, she is a woman who should not suffer like that... We would like to see her soon on our land healthy and smiling! .." - commented on the release of the stamp acting General Director of "Ukrposhta" Ihor Tkachuk.
