Warm ochre and pale blue tones move through a vertical field of archaeological calm, giving the modern tenge a measured ceremonial weight.

Design & Symbolism

Obverse

The obverse is arranged vertically around the 1000 tenge denomination, with the Tree of Life detail from the headgear of the Golden Man of the Issyk kurgan, a bird motif, DNA spiral, national emblem, and layered ornamental forms. The composition draws on Saka-period visual memory, placing ancient symbolic material within Kazakhstan’s contemporary circulation design.

Reverse

The reverse presents a resting Central Asian Shepherd Dog and a standing Tazy sighthound against sloping hills, with a circular Kazakh symbol and decorative shield-like ornament shaping the background. The scene shifts from archaeological emblem to living steppe culture, giving the note a quieter register of continuity between ancient heritage and pastoral landscape.

Collector’s Insight

For collectors, the 2024 1000 tenge issue belongs to Kazakhstan’s modern Saka style design, printed by the national banknote factory and signed by Timur Süleimenov. It records the point at which ancient nomadic aesthetics were formally absorbed into the secure vertical language of the contemporary tenge.
