Additional information

Issued as part of Kazakhstan's long-running wildlife conservation series, this coin belongs to a program the National Bank has used since the late 1990s to spotlight species endemic to Central Asian terrain — the snow leopard among the most politically prominent, having been adopted as a national symbol. The irbis carries particular weight in Kazakhstani national identity, appearing on the coat of arms of Almaty and embedded in the branding of the country's sovereign wealth structures.

Nominal face value of 1 tenge is purely ceremonial; the coin was never intended for circulation.
