The 50 ₸ coin, struck in nickel silver and weighing 4.71 g, is dedicated to Kostanay and continues the series about the cities of Kazakhstan. It is the seventh issue in the cycle devoted to the country’s architectural and historical monuments. Kostanay is located in northern Kazakhstan on the Tobol River and holds an important place in the region’s history as a major administrative, cultural, and economic center. The city’s history includes several stages of development: at the beginning of its existence it was known as Nikolayevsk, later its name changed, and over time the modern name Kostanay became established. The release of this coin highlights the city’s significance in the historical and cultural heritage of Kazakhstan and reflects an interest in preserving the memory of the country’s important urban centers.
