Reverse description The central motif presents a detailed frontal view of the Kumbez of Manas, the 14th-century mausoleum located near Talas, rendered with intricate brick-pattern ornamentation, a pointed pyramidal roof, corner finials, and an elaborately decorated pointed-arch portal. To the left of the mausoleum, a galloping horse and two tall carved stone stelae (balbals) rise against a mountainous background; to the right, a soaring bird in flight and a seated figure of a storyteller (manaschi) are depicted against mountain peaks. A decorative lower register features traditional Kyrgyz scroll ornament in relief. The denomination 10 СОМ appears in the lower field. The curved upper border legend reads МАНАСТЫН КҮМБӨЗҮ in Cyrillic to the left and KUMBEZ OF MANAS in Latin to the right, separated by a diamond lozenge, with the silver specification Ag 925° and weight 28.28 г. inscribed in the upper field.
