The Museum's archives boast more than 30,000 items – photographs, documents, the personal correspondence of noted individuals, playbills, posters, flyers, and the like, all documenting the life, history, and cultural legacy of the Ukrainian people. The history of Ukrainian immigration to the United States, which dates back to the late 1800s, is chronicled in the Museum's rich collection of archival photographs. Among the Museum's archives are an impressive collection of 17th and 18th century maps; an extensive numismatic collection that includes a 9th century silver hryvnia, 16th century coins, and Ukrainian currency from the early 20th century to the present; and a philatelic collection with items from the first quarter of the 20th century to the present.
