Reverse description The reverse depicts a dynamic sculptural composition of an animal figure — likely a mythological or zoomorphic creature from the Zhalaulinsk archaeological treasure — rendered in high relief with fine detailing characteristic of ancient Kazakh goldwork. A decorative spiral motif appears in the upper left field. The date '2009' is inscribed to the right of the central device. The legend 'ZHALAULINSKIY TREASURE' curves along the lower periphery in Latin script. The polished proof fields provide strong contrast to the frosted relief elements.

Additional information

The Zhalaulinsk hoard, discovered in the Zhambyl region of Kazakhstan, contained gold and silver objects dating to roughly the 4th–5th centuries AD, attributed to the Hunnic migration period. This coin commemorates that find. Kazakhstan's commemorative gold program frequently issues coins in this fractional format — 1.24 grams of .9999 fine gold — deliberately priced for collectors rather than investors.
