| Beschrijving voorzijde | At center, a double-headed eagle displayed within a diamond-shaped geometric frame, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The eagle, a heraldic emblem associated with the Turkmen presidency, is depicted with wings spread and detailed feathering. Surrounding the central frame are traditional Turkmen carpet-pattern ornamental motifs at the cardinal and diagonal points. The arc legend TÜRKMENISTANYÑ MERKEZI BANKY runs along the upper periphery, while the inscription TÜRKMENISTANYÑ PREZIDENTI / SAPARMYRAT TÜRKMENBAŞY curves around the inner frame. The date 2006 appears in the lower exergue, flanked by stylized wheat or laurel sprigs. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Ruhnama — literally "Book of the Soul" — was written by Saparmurat Niyazov, Turkmenistan's president-for-life, and declared a sacred text alongside the Quran. Schools taught it as core curriculum, drivers were required to study it for their license exam, and a mosque in Kipchak was inscribed with passages from it rather than Quranic verse. Niyazov died in December 2006, the same year this coin was issued, and his successor Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow quietly began dismantling the Ruhnama cult almost immediately.
The coin is essentially a state-commissioned artifact of a personality cult that collapsed within months of its minting.
