2017 Ukraine 1-oz Silver Archangel Michael NGC PF69UCAM Exclusive Ukraine Label

Honoring “Who is Like God”

The original Hebrew name Michael means “Who is like God,” which hints at the regard in which Michael the Archangel is held. In fact, he plays important roles in each of the three great religions. Jews regard him as the advocate of Israel, and Muslims believe that he is responsible for the forces of nature. Although Protestant denominations generally do not call upon the saints for intercession, the Anglican church has an unofficial prayer to him. Catholics, meanwhile, believe that he plays four important roles, the first of which is the leader of God’s Army against the powers of Hell. Given his prominence in such a range of faiths, this 2017 Ukraine one ounce Silver Archangel Michael Proof is more than just a coin; it is a religious symbol for many collectors.

• THE LATEST IN THE ARCHANGEL MICHAEL SERIES -- This 2017 Silver Archangel Michael Proof is the seventh coin in the series, which has retained the same design since its debut in 2011.

• STRUCK FROM FINE SILVER WITH A PROOF FINISH – Each Archangel Michael Proof was struck from one ounce of 99.9% fine silver and has a proof finish that is fitting of an angel.

• UKRAINE LEGAL TENDER – Each Archangel Michael Proof is 1 Hryvnia legal tender in Ukraine. Ukraine, formerly known as “the Ukraine” during its time as part of the Soviet Union, is home to a rich history, as it has been inhabited by humans for over 30,000 years and was home to one of the world’s first constitutions, the Constitution of Pylyp Orlyk.

• CERTIFIED VIRTUALLY FLAWLESS – Your coin will be graded Proof-69 Ultra Cameo (PF69UC) by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), a distinction that means your almost-flawless coin will showcase an impressive full strike and indistinguishable imperfections -- well above and beyond the quality of the vast majority of coins in the series.

• A LIMITED MINTAGE – The Bank of Ukraine minted just 10,000 pieces.

Ukraine is a fascinating country with a rich, diverse history. It is fitting, then, that the country would choose a subject with such broad appeal for its coin.

Whether you are fascinated with countries that used to be a part of the Soviet Union or you are a believer in one of the world’s three great religions, add this 2017 Ukraine one ounce Silver Archangel Michael Proof to your collection today!
