The 20 ₸ coin of Kazakhstan was issued in 1996 to mark the fifth anniversary of the republic’s independence and belongs to the commemorative issues of the early years of the national monetary system. It is part of a series dedicated to the independence of the Republic of Kazakhstan and reflects an important stage in the country’s development after gaining sovereignty. The coin was struck in nickel silver and weighs 11.17 g. The issue was intended for a wide range of collectors and enthusiasts of commemorative coinage, which is why the coin became fairly widespread and secured its place in modern collections related to the country’s history. This issue is of interest as evidence of state symbolism and anniversary programs of the mid-1990s, when Kazakhstan was forming its own tradition of commemorative minting.
