Reverse description The reverse depicts a richly detailed scene celebrating Kazakhstan's agricultural heritage. At centre, a traditionally dressed Kazakh woman stands in a harvested grain field, cradling a bundle of wheat in her arms; she is adorned with a traditional headdress and jewellery, rendered in finely detailed relief. Behind her, a rural village landscape with farm buildings recedes into the background. A large gilded sun occupies the upper left of the field, its warm golden selective gilding contrasting with the frosted silver surfaces of the figures and field. To the right, prominent stalks of ripe wheat ears are rendered in selective gilding, further emphasising the harvest theme. The inscription 'АЛТЫН ДӘН ДАЛАСЫ' and the date '2017' appear in gilded lettering at the upper left, with the Kazakhstan Mint mark 'KMC' positioned at the upper right.
