The 1 $2022 US silver bullion coins are among the coins commemorating the courageous resistance of Ukrainian defenders to Russian occupiers and the desire of Ukrainians to defend their independence and sovereignty.

The reverse of both coins depicts a woman, personifying the image of Freedom. The design of the reverse side of the coin is based on the sketch “Freedom Walking” by artist and medalist Adolph Alexander Weinman.

This design was originally used for the US 50 cent change coin, which was carbated between 1916-1947.

The design of investment coins 2022 reflects many Ukrainian national symbols. On the reverse of the first coin, a blue-and-yellow flag flutters around a woman wearing a floral wreath.

On the reverse of the second, Svoboda is dressed in the colors of the Ukrainian flag and is walking across a field of sunflowers. In addition, the woman's wreath consists of sunflowers, and she holds a bouquet of these flowers in her hands.

The sunflower has long been considered a Ukrainian symbol of love for the motherland. When the sun sets, the sunflower lowers its head sadly - just like a person in a foreign land misses his native land. Just as a sunflower returns for the sun, so a person is always connected with his Motherland with his thoughts and deeds. Just as the sun is the only and irreplaceable landmark for a sunflower, so for a person, his native country is the greatest value.

Sunflower inflorescences have also become a symbol of mourning for the Ukrainian heroes who died in the Donbass and a symbolic embodiment of the Day of Remembrance of the Defenders of Ukraine, which is celebrated annually on August 29.
