格里夫纳继承了卢布的"分"的单位，格里夫纳的货币符号为乌克兰国家银行于2003年举办的设计比赛中选出的冠军作品. 此符号的设计意念为草写的乌克兰文西里尔字母г, 中央加上两条水平直线, 象征“稳定”。格里夫纳的西里尔字母缩写为 "грн." . 其国际货币代号 - ISO 4217 Code是UAH 或 980. 格里夫尼亚的符号已经被整理进2005年发布的Unicode 4.1版。
可惜的是截至2006年гривня的货币符号仍旧不为大部分乌克兰人流传, 不少商店还是在价钱的数目后以缩写грн或UAH表示货币单位, 新货币符号甚至不见于2004年至2006年新设计及发行的钞票上.
发行面额有一、二、五、十、二十、五十、一百、二百，一格里夫纳等于一百戈比，戈比面额有一、二、五、十、二十五和五十。独立后的第二年，乌克兰发行卢布代用库邦"，并逐步扩大"库邦"的使用范围，使其向正式货币"格里夫纳"过渡。1996年9月乌克兰中央银行正式发行格里夫纳，并宣布与俄罗斯卢布、美元等外币实行自由兑换。近几年来，格里夫纳与美元的汇率几经大幅波动之后，逐步趋向稳定。1999年底，格里夫纳与美元的比价为5.2:1。2000年，乌克兰应偿付的外债为30亿美元。据世界银行的资料，乌克兰1998年的人均国民生产总值为850美元。
The history of the currency of the Ukraine
Following Ukrainian independence in 1991, the Ukrainian karbovanets replaced the Soviet ruble at par in 1992, with the ISO 4217 code being UAK. The karbovanets suffered from very high inflation and was replaced by the hryvnia in 1996, at a rate of 100,000 karbovantsi = 1 hryvnia. When the hryvnia was introduced in 1996, a 15 day exchange period was in effect from September 2-16, 1996, during which both the karbovanets and hryvnia were in circulation. The use of the karbovanets for all kinds of payments stopped completely after September 1996 and the only accepted currency after was the hryvnia.
The hryvnia or Ukrainian: гривня, has been the national currency of Ukraine since 1996, one hryvnia is divided into 100 kopiykas ).
Prices in the Ukraine are commonly written using the hryvnia sign, which looks like a backwards S with two horizontal bars through it. Not much thought seems to have been given to that fact that most computers cannot render the hryvnia sign properly. Sometimes the currency is abbreviated using "грн", the Ukrainian letters HRN. The hryvnia's ISO 4217 currency code is UAH.
Coins are currently issued in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50 kopiyok and 1 hryvnia. Banknotes come in denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 hryven. All Hryven banknotes issued since 1992 remain legal tender although the National Bank of the Ukraine is gradually withdrawing from circulation all banknotes from the first series dated in 1992. Old banknotes issued in karbovanets are no loger redeemable, their only value is to collectors.
From 1920-1942 and from 1945-1991, the Ukraine used the banknotes and coins of the Soviet Union.Click here to see the notes of the former Soviet Union
