| Obverse description | The bifurcated field presents a stylised allegory of man and the universe: the left half, struck in the tantalum centre, depicts a standing human figure against a backdrop of orbiting stars and elliptical trajectories, while the right half, in the silver ring, shows a swirling stellar field with scattered dot motifs. The denomination '500 ТЕҢГЕ' appears in the right field, accompanied by the fineness and weight inscriptions 'Ag 925 14.6 gr.' and 'Ta 29.8 gr.' along with the Kazakhstan Mint monogram. The bilingual circular legend reads 'ҚАЗАҚСТАН РЕСПУБЛИКАСЫ' in Cyrillic at the top and 'REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN' in Latin characters at the bottom. |

| Reverse description | The reverse features a highly detailed rendering of the Soviet space station Mir depicted in orbit, with its characteristic modular structure, extended solar panels, and docking ports clearly delineated. A Space Shuttle is shown approaching the station, with a large celestial body — rendered in the tantalum centre — looming in the background against a star-dotted field. The bilingual circular legend reads 'SPACE STATION MIR' in Latin script at the top and 'МИР ҒАРЫШ СТАНЦИЯСЫ' in Cyrillic at the bottom, flanking the date '2012' at the lower left. |
