The 500 ₸ silver coin, struck in .925 fine silver and weighing 31.10 g, is dedicated to E. Sidorkin’s work Apples of Almaty. It is based on the image of one of the artist’s most famous creations, distinguished by the subtlety of its artistic treatment and its soft, lyrical tone. Sidorkin’s work holds an important place in Kazakh visual art, and the choice of this piece highlights the connection between numismatics and national culture. The composition evokes the beauty of the Almaty theme, associated with fertility, warmth, and the city’s recognizable image. The coin is of interest not only as a commemorative issue, but also as a tribute to the artist, who was able to convey emotional depth and a distinctive mood in his work.
