The 200 tenge BUǴY “Deer” coin is struck in cupronickel and weighs 15.00 grams. The issue continues the “Cult Animals – Totems of the Nomads” series and turns to one of the most significant images in the worldview of the steppe peoples. The artistic concept is based on combining a realistic depiction of a deer with a decorative interpretation inspired by the Saka animal style. This approach emphasizes not only the animal’s outward appearance but also its symbolic meaning. In the traditional beliefs of the nomads, the deer was regarded as a sacred creature associated with the idea of clan origin, the continuity of generations, and the continuation of life. The coin conveys an important layer of Kazakhstan’s cultural heritage and reflects interest in the ancient beliefs and artistic motifs of the Great Steppe.
