The 500 ₸ silver coin is dedicated to the image of a solar deity known from ancient petroglyphs of Kazakhstan. This issue continues a series devoted to monuments of rock art that reflect the worldview and spiritual beliefs of the ancient inhabitants of the steppe. At the heart of the artistic concept is one of the most striking symbols of the region’s archaeological heritage: an anthropomorphic figure with a radiant halo, associated with the cult of the sun, fertility, and cosmic order. Such images appear in well-known rock art complexes and are regarded as important evidence of early religious beliefs. The coin is struck in .925 silver and weighs 24.00 g. It is of interest both to collectors and to those interested in the history, archaeology, and culture of Kazakhstan.
