| Additional information |
Kazakhstan first competed as an independent nation at the Winter Olympics in 1994, two years after the Soviet dissolution, and by 2014 had built a competitive program concentrated in cross-country skiing and biathlon. This issue was part of a broader commemorative program the National Bank produced in the lead-up to Sochi — struck three years before the games themselves, which was not unusual for pre-event Olympic series where mint allocations and distribution windows are planned well in advance.
