Details

The obverse of the coin features a traditional Crimean Tatar ornament on a mirror background, symbolizing Oleksandr Usyk's Crimean roots. This pattern, which was used in the design of one of the athlete's images in the "battle of the eyes" before the fight for the title of absolute world champion, emphasizes the inextricable connection between Crimea and Ukraine. 

The reverse, in the center of the composition, depicts a stylized image of a champion athlete against the background of the outline of the Motherland monument , a symbol of the indestructibility and strength of the Ukrainian people. Below, to the left and right of the champion's silhouette, are the inscriptions: 18.05.2024 (date of the fight), ABSOLUTE and UNDISPUTED (title won by the athlete).
