| Reverse description | At center, a stylized depiction of Umai — the ancient Turkic mother goddess — rendered in a fragmented, mosaic-like artistic composition evoking petroglyphic and archaeological imagery associated with the Mountain Altai culture. The figure is shown frontally, adorned with traditional ornamental details and pendants, with a tree-of-life motif visible between the outstretched elements. The inscription 'Ag 925 24г.' appears in the lower left field, and the KMC mint mark is positioned at the right. The circular border legend reads '• УМАЙ • ТАУЛЫ АЛТАЙ •' in Cyrillic along the upper arc and '• UMAI • MOUNTAIN ALTAI •' in Latin script along the lower arc. |
