The 500 ₸ silver coin, weighing 24.00 g, is dedicated to the Aisha-Bibi Mausoleum, one of the most famous monuments of medieval architecture in Kazakhstan. This 12th-century mausoleum is located 18 kilometers from Taraz and is associated with the name of Aisha-Bibi, whom legend describes as the daughter of the scholar, poet, and hakim Suleiman Bakyrgani. The monument is especially valued for its unique artistic design: it is the only architectural site in Kazakhstan entirely faced with carved terracotta tiles. Its rich ornamentation and delicate decorative craftsmanship make the mausoleum an outstanding example of the architecture of its time. Struck in .925 silver, the coin reflects the cultural and historical significance of this monument, which is included in Kazakhstan’s National List of Sacred Sites.
