| Reverse description | The large numeral '1' dominates the central field in bold relief, flanked symmetrically on both sides by ornate traditional Kazakh scrollwork and foliate arabesques. The denomination legend ТЕҢГЕ is inscribed in Cyrillic capital letters immediately below the numeral, centered at the base of the design. The overall composition is clean and uncluttered, with the decorative side ornaments lending a distinctly Central Asian aesthetic character to the reverse. |

| Additional information |
Kazakhstan's shift to steel-core coinage for the tenge's smallest denominations was driven by the rising cost of zinc and copper relative to face value — a problem that had made the earlier brass coins economically irrational to produce. The magnetic variety replaced KM#23 without ceremony, as these transitions typically go unannounced to the public.
