Reverse description The reverse presents a central medallion depicting a stylized wheel or compass rose motif, consisting of a circle bisected by a bold equal-armed cross with grid-like detailing, evoking ancient cartographic or cosmological symbolism associated with Silk Road trade routes. Surrounding the central medallion, eight caravan animals — alternating between Bactrian camels and horses — are arranged in a continuous procession, each linked by a rope or lead, conveying the movement of trade caravans along the historic route. The circumferential legend along the upper arc reads 'SILK ROAD • ROAD OF DIALOGUE' in Latin script, while the lower arc bears the Kazakh Cyrillic equivalent 'ЖІБЕК ЖОЛЫ • ҚАУЫШУ ЖОЛЫ', with dot ornaments separating the inscriptions.
