| Obverse description | The state coat of arms of the Republic of Kazakhstan is depicted centrally, rendered in fine relief within a circular frame of traditional Kazakh ornamental patterns featuring interlaced floral and geometric motifs. The arms show a shanyrak (the upper dome of a yurt) with radiating uyk (support poles) flanked by mythical winged horses above crossed ears of wheat and a five-pointed star at the apex. Surrounding the central design, the legend arcs along the upper rim reading 'QAZAQSTAN RESPÝBLIKASY · 2023 · REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN' in Latin script, while the lower rim bears the denomination '200 TEŃGE' flanked by decorative stops. |

| Additional information |
The tuie is a traditional Kazakh wooden vessel used to serve kumiss — fermented mare's milk — at ceremonies marking births, weddings, and the seasonal movement of herds. Its inclusion in Kazakhstan's ongoing cultural coinage program reflects a broader post-independence effort to document material culture that survived Soviet-era suppression of nomadic identity. The 2023 date places this piece in the program's mature phase, well after the initial commemorative rush of the 1990s and 2000s.
