Reverse description The reverse features a stylized shanyrak — the circular crown piece of a traditional Kazakh yurt — rendered at center as a geometric lattice motif. Encircling the shanyrak is a procession of camels in a caravan formation, symbolizing the ancient Silk Road trade route and its role in connecting civilizations. The composition is contained within a decorative circular border. Bilingual inscriptions in Kazakh and English appear around the design, reading 'ЖІБЕК ЖОЛЫ • ҚАУЫШУ ЖОЛЫ' and 'SILK ROAD • ROAD OF DIALOGUE', evoking the theme of cultural dialogue and exchange along the historical route.
