| Additional information |
The tuie — a traditional Kazakh ladle used in ritual hospitality — was formally inscribed on Kazakhstan's Representative List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in the years following independence, part of a broader state effort to codify nomadic material culture into national identity. This coin is one in a running series from the National Bank documenting such objects, issued under a program that has expanded steadily since the early 2010s.
The MH25 copper-nickel alloy is standard to the circulation series, though at 15 grams the piece sits notably heavy for its denomination — a deliberate choice to give the commemorative issues a more substantial feel than everyday pocket change.
