The 50 ₸ commemorative coin of Kazakhstan is dedicated to Buran, one of the most famous projects of the Soviet space program. This orbiter was created as part of the Energia-Buran program as a reusable spacecraft for missions to low Earth orbit. It holds a special place in history thanks to its first and only flight on November 15, 1988, which was carried out entirely without a crew. The coin is made of Neyzilber (nickel silver), weighs 11.17 g, has a diameter of 31.00 mm, a face value of 50 ₸, and is issued in uncirculated quality.
