The 500 ₸ commemorative coin is struck in .925 fine silver and weighs 31.10 g. Its design refers to the early monetary history of Kazakhstan and reproduces the image of the ancient “Denga” coin with a central hole. The composition is based on archaeological material associated with the 8th-century Turgesh Khaganate and the Altyn-tobe settlement. This choice of subject emphasizes the continuity of monetary traditions in the territory of the country and reflects an interest in monuments of medieval culture. The coin conveys the distinctive features of early coinage and serves as a reminder of the important role numismatic finds play in the study of the region’s history.
