The commemorative coin of Kazakhstan, Aquarius, continues the series dedicated to the signs of the zodiac. Its artistic design is executed in the style of ancient rock art, giving the composition a distinctive and easily recognizable character. The design features imagery associated with zodiac symbolism, as well as decorative elements that emphasize the theme of celestial constellations and natural elements. A special feature of this issue is the combination of .925 silver and a tantalum insert with color-changing technology, which makes the coin especially striking. One side displays state and symbolic elements, while the other shows the stylized Aquarius constellation, its sign, and its name. The coin has a face value of 100 tenge, and its total weight is 25.00 g. The coin is made in an unusual octagonal shape, which further distinguishes it from other issues in the series.
