The 500 ₸ silver proof coin, struck in .925 silver and weighing 41.40 g, is dedicated to Lunokhod 1, the world’s first self-propelled vehicle to operate on the surface of the Moon. This lunar rover was delivered to Earth’s natural satellite by the Soviet automated station Luna 17 on November 17, 1970. Its mission became an important milestone in the history of space exploration, as the vehicle was able to travel across the lunar surface and transmit scientific data, photographs, and information about the properties of the terrain back to Earth. Lunokhod 1 remained in operation until October 4, 1971, and during that time carried out a substantial amount of research. The coin reflects interest in the achievements of space science and emphasizes the significance of the lunar program in the history of world cosmonautics.
