| Obverse description | Central field displays the State Emblem of Kazakhstan — a shanyrak (circular roof crown of a yurt) with sun rays radiating outward, flanked by mythical winged horses (tulpars), with crossed wheat stalks and hunting horns below, all above a ribbon cartouche inscribed ҚАЗАҚСТАН. The circular legend ҚАЗАҚСТАН ҰЛТТЫҚ БАНКІ runs along the upper periphery in Cyrillic script, interrupted by decorative dot-and-floral ornaments. The denomination 50 ТЕҢГЕ is boldly rendered in large numerals in the lower field, flanked by stylized floral ornaments. The mint mark ҚҰБ appears to the right of the emblem in the field. |

| Additional information |
Mukan Tulebaev was the Kazakh composer behind Birzhan and Sara, the first Kazakh opera, premiered in 1946 — a work that required navigating Soviet cultural policy carefully enough to survive while still drawing on traditional Kazakh melodic forms. This coin is part of Kazakhstan's ongoing circulation commemorative program honoring figures central to the country's cultural and intellectual history, a series that has run across multiple denominations since the early 2000s.
