Ukrainian Pysanka Easter eggs are intricately decorated using traditional wax-resist methods, creating vibrant, symbolic designs that reflect the country’s rich cultural heritage. These eggs, often adorned with geometric patterns and motifs representing life, fertility, and rebirth, are a central part of Ukrainian Easter celebrations. These hand-crafted treasures have gained global popularity among artists, collectors, and enthusiasts around the world. They’re so popular that Canada’s world-renowned Royal Canadian Mint (RCM) has issued an annual Pysanka Egg Proof coin every year since 2016.
This year’s 45 x 33 mm egg-shaped $30 legal-tender Proof features several traditional Ukrainian cosmomorphic motifs—ancient symbols for the sun, the stars, and what they represent. The design incorporates glimpses of the coin’s silver surface, weaving sparkling precious metal with vivid colors. It’s an intricate, original work of art that draws its inspiration from the cosmos, colorfully combining ancient Ukrainian motifs for love and passion, fire and light, to form a contemporary representation of the universe in all its strength, balance and benevolence for all mankind.
