The 200 ₸ commemorative cupronickel coin, weighing 15.00 g, is dedicated to the international art project World Painting. Its design features a fragment of a well-known Kazakh artistic project: the Dove of Peace created by artist Karipbek Kuyukov, who suffered from the consequences of nuclear weapons testing at the Semipalatinsk Test Site, as well as an olive branch created by Dauren Kasteyev, the grandson of Abylkhan Kasteyev.

The World Painting project is a large mosaic canvas made up of fragments created by participants from different countries. It was recognized with a Guinness World Record as the artwork in whose creation the largest number of people passed a paintbrush from one to another. A total of 2,070 people from nearly 200 countries took part in creating the canvas. The idea of the project expresses people’s aspiration for peace, harmony, and mutual understanding regardless of nationality, religion, or place of residence.
