The 100 ₸ commemorative coin is dedicated to the Turanga, or diversifolia poplar, one of Kazakhstan’s rare plants. This tree has long held a special place in the beliefs of the peoples of the steppe: among ancient nomads, the Turanga was regarded as a revered, almost sacred tree. The choice of this theme highlights the connection of the numismatic series with the country’s natural heritage and serves as a reminder of the importance of protecting endangered species. The Turanga is listed in the Red Book of Kazakhstan, which makes this issue especially significant not only for collectors, but also as a reminder of the need to preserve the country’s unique flora. The coin is made of nickel silver and weighs 11.17 g. This release continues the series dedicated to the plant world of Kazakhstan.
