The Kazakhstan coin “Dalmatian Pelican” was issued in 2010 as part of the “Wildlife of Kazakhstan” series and is dedicated to one of the most recognizable birds inhabiting the country’s bodies of water. The Dalmatian pelican is known for its large size, distinctive appearance, and important role in natural ecosystems, so its depiction on the coin highlights the importance of protecting rare and valuable representatives of fauna. The coin has a face value of 50 ₸. It is made of nickel silver and weighs 11.17 g. This issue is of interest both to collectors focused on Kazakhstan’s wildlife in numismatics and to those interested in commemorative releases reflecting the country’s natural diversity. The coin also serves as a reminder of the need to treat the habitats of waterbirds with care and to preserve Kazakhstan’s natural heritage.
