The Kyiv Metro (Ukrainian: Ки́ївський метрополіте́н, translit. Kyjivskyj metropoliten, IPA: [ˈkɪjiu̯sʲkej metropolʲiˈtɛn]) is a metro system that is the mainstay of Kyiv's public transport. It was the first rapid transit system in Ukraine and the third one built in the Soviet Union (after Moscow and St Petersburg Metros). It has three lines with a total length of 67.56 kilometers (41.98 mi) and 52 stations. The system carries 1.331 million passengers daily (2015), accounting for 46.7% of Kyiv's public transport load (as of 2014). In 2016, the metro carried 484.56 million passengers. The deepest station in the world, Arsenalna (at 105.5 m or 346.1 ft), is found on the system.

Like the other 4 tokens in this "50 years" series the tokens come in two versions of blue. Dark blue as seen in the photos above and light blue:
