Issued by Ukraine in 1999, this 30 kopiyok commemorative stamp honors Hetman Ivan Vyhovsky, a key Cossack leader in Ukrainian history. The design features Vyhovsky at the center, holding the hetman’s mace (bulava), symbolizing his authority. On both sides, dynamic battle scenes depict the Battle of Konotop (1659), where Ukrainian Cossacks and their allies defeated Muscovite forces. The artwork captures fiery combat, soldiers in traditional dress, and a vivid portrayal of destruction. At the top left appears the Ukrainian trident (tryzub), the national emblem. This stamp highlights a pivotal moment of resilience and military achievement in Ukrainian history.
