| Obverse description | The central field displays the national coat of arms of Kazakhstan, featuring a shanyrak (the crown of a yurt) above crossed patterns, flanked by mythical winged horses (tulpars), with the legend КАЗАКСТАН inscribed on a ribbon in the exergue of the shield. The denomination numeral 500 appears prominently in the lower central field beneath the arms, with the word ТЕҢГЕ below it. Decorative Kazakh ornamental patterns frame the left and right sides of the field. The circular legend reads ҚАЗАҚСТАН РЕСПУБЛИКАСЫ to the left and РЕСПУБЛИКА КАЗАХСТАН to the right, both inscribed along the coin's border in Cyrillic script. |

| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a traditional Kazakh aitys scene in high-relief, showing three figures — two seated musicians playing the dombra and one figure in the center — gathered beneath an ornate yurt canopy with tasseled drapery and a latticed kerege (yurt wall) in the background. The scene is rendered in a detailed, pictorial style evoking the oral poetry competition tradition of the Kazakh people. The word АЙТЫС (Aitys) appears as the primary legend along the lower border in Cyrillic script. The year 2011 is inscribed vertically on the left, while the fineness and weight notation Ag 925 31,1 gr. is inscribed vertically on the right. The Kazakhstan Mint mark (KMC monogram) appears in the lower central field beneath the composition. |
