Among nomadic peoples, the golden eagle was regarded as a sacred bird and symbolized courage, strength of spirit, and fearlessness. Its image held an important place in traditional culture, and its feathers were used as a protective talisman kept in the home for safety and well-being. The 500 ₸ BÚRKIT coin continues the “Cult Animals – Totems of Nomads” series and is dedicated to one of the most revered symbols of the steppe. Its design combines realistic features of the golden eagle with artistic stylization inspired by the Saka animal style. The coin is struck in .925 silver and weighs 31.10 g. This issue highlights the connection between modern Kazakh numismatics and the historical heritage and worldview of nomadic civilization.
