The Eagle Owl series sits within Kazakhstan's broader wildlife conservation coinage program, which the National Bank has used since the early 2000s to draw attention to species under pressure across the Central Asian steppe and forest zones. The Eurasian eagle owl — one of the largest owl species on earth — has faced habitat loss across its Kazakh range, and its inclusion here reflects ongoing IUCN monitoring of the population.
Struck in nickel silver rather than the cupronickel alloys more common to circulation coinage, this is a collector issue that never entered general use.
