The 100 ₸ BUǴY “Deer” coin continues a series dedicated to the iconic animals and totems of the nomads. Its artistic concept combines a realistic depiction of a deer with a decorative interpretation inspired by the Saka animal style. This approach highlights not only the expressiveness of the image, but also its deep symbolic meaning in the traditional culture of the steppe peoples.

The deer has long held a special place in the beliefs of the nomads and was regarded as a sacred animal. In the worldview of the Proto-Turks, it was associated with the idea of clan origin, serving as an ancestral figure and a symbol of the continuity of generations.

The coin is made of cupronickel and weighs 11.17 g. Issued with a face value of 100 ₸, it reflects an interest in historical heritage and ancient images that have retained their significance in the cultural memory of Kazakhstan.
