Ukraine, 25 kopiyok, 2014

Hi everybody:

I have two different coins of this year (2014), one magnetic and the other non magnetic. I try to modify the non magnetic in the catalog, but it's no possible to do it, because the dates are "closed".
Please, try to put the date 2014 in the non magnetic type, as it's done in the magnetic one.
Thanks,

It should be fine now.

I've made a modification request for this coin (to be added this year in the non magnetic coin), because 25 Kopiyok 2014 I have both, magnetic and non magnetic one.

But I also would like someone to clarify the differences that I have found, when searching for this 2014 coin on the Internet, between Numista and Ucoin for the last 25 Kopiyok coins issued:

According to Numista:

2014 (Circulating and In Sets, both magnetic)
2015 (Circulating and In Sets, both magnetic)
2016 (Only In Sets, magnetic)
2018 (Only In Sets, magnetic)

According to UCoin:

2014 (Circulating Magnetic, In Sets NON magnetic)
2015 (Circulating Magnetic, In Sets NON magnetic)
​​​​​​​2016 (Only In Sets, NON magnetic)
​​​​​​​2018 (Only In Sets, magnetic)

Which one is correct? Maybe someone who has this 4 years coin sets could clarify something.

And, according to that, one of my 2014 coins (the non magnetic and circulated one) doesn't exist in Numista Catalog and it exists in UCoin Catalog but only In Sets (mine is circulated coin)

Hello Oscar,

I believe at Numista's catalog there is a mistake (in general Ukrainian circulating coins' section needs a lot of work).

The biggest and the most complete catalog of Ukrainian circulating coins is this one, the only thing it has not been updated since 2015.

It says that the sets in 2014 had coins made of Aluminium-bronze (non-magnetic), but regular circulating coins were made of Brass plated steel (magnetic). 2014 was the first year when they switch the alloy for circulating coins (10, 25 & 50 kopiykas).

From the posts in Numismatic groups in Ukraine, I can confirm that in the mint sets, they continued to make them with Aluminium-bronze for 3 more years (2014, 2015, 2016). That means that non-magnetic coins of these years (2014-6) from mint sets differ in composition from the ones in circulation. And yes, UCoin's information is correct.

In conclusion, the 2014 non-magnetic coin you have is from a mint set.

I hope it helps.

Ok, many thanks for that info "iiruig", then I ask some administrator or the ukrainian referee to move the year lines (and their owners)
