| Additional information |
Kazakhstan's switch to Latin script for its Kazakh-language text — initiated by presidential decree in 2017 under Nursultan Nazarbayev — was explicitly framed as a break from Soviet-era Cyrillic, aligning the country culturally and symbolically with Turkic neighbors like Azerbaijan and Turkey. The coinage was updated accordingly, making this issue one of the more politically loaded denominations in an otherwise mundane series.
