The commemorative coin of Kazakhstan, “Tian Shan Brown Bear,” is dedicated to one of the largest and rarest predators of the mountainous regions of Central Asia. This animal lives in the remote areas of the Tian Shan and is considered an important part of the region’s natural heritage. The issue continues the series devoted to the wildlife of Kazakhstan and draws attention to the need for careful treatment of nature and the preservation of the natural habitat of rare species. The coin has a face value of 500 ₸, is struck in .925 silver, and weighs 24.00 g. Its artistic design is traditional for conservation-themed issues: the image of the bear conveys strength, endurance, and a connection with the harsh mountain landscape, while the coin itself is of interest both to collectors and to those who appreciate releases dedicated to the fauna of Kazakhstan.
