News Article: Kazakhstan Releases Commemorative Silver Coins to Mark 30th Anniversary of Constitution
The National Bank of Kazakhstan has launched a special edition of silver proof coins to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Kazakhstan Constitution. These coins, available for purchase through the NBK online store, are a testament to Kazakhstan's commitment to democracy, independence, and freedom as established by its Constitution.
The silver coins are made of sterling silver (Ag 925) and feature an inscription of the anniversary and an image on the reverse side that reflects the significance of the Constitution's adoption. Each coin weighs 31.1 grams and has a face value of 1,000 tenge, equivalent to approximately US$1.85. The mintage for these coins is limited to 1,000 pieces.
In addition to the silver coins, the National Bank of Kazakhstan has also released bicolor coins. These coins, made of nickel-brass and cupronickel alloy, have a face value of 100 tenge (approximately US$0.18) and a circulation of 5 million pieces. The design of the bicolor coin features an open book representing the Constitution, with the number 30 placed against the outline of Kazakhstan's map. At the center of the map is a shanyrak, symbolizing the sun.
Both the silver and bicolor coins are intended for free circulation across Kazakhstan and are accepted at their face value for payments, deposits, transfers, and exchanges. The sale date for the silver coins will be announced separately.
It's worth noting that while no information about gold commemorative coins for this specific anniversary was found, the National Bank of Kazakhstan often releases commemorative coins for various themes and countries.
These commemorative coins serve as a tangible reminder of Kazakhstan's constitutional milestones and its ongoing commitment to democratic values. For those interested in owning a piece of this historical event, the silver proof coins provide a unique opportunity to do so.
