The 100 ₸ commemorative coin of Kazakhstan is dedicated to the eagle-owl, which held a special place in the beliefs of the nomads as a sacred bird and an important totem. Its image was associated with wisdom, insight, and the ability to protect people from evil forces. It was believed that the eagle-owl not only warned of danger but also served as a guide to hidden knowledge inaccessible in everyday life. In this context, the coin reflects one of the important layers of the traditional culture of the steppe, where animals and birds were endowed with deep symbolic meaning. The coin is made of cupronickel and weighs 11.17 g. This issue highlights interest in the spiritual heritage of the nomadic peoples and in images that have retained their significance in the historical memory of Kazakhstan.
