1. Kazakhtan tenge
rate

2. • The tenge (Kazakh: теңге, teñge) is the currency of
Kazakhstan. It is divided into 100 tïın (тиын, also
transliterated as tiyin or tijin). It was introduced on 15
November 1993 to replace the Soviet ruble at a rate of 1
tenge = 500 rubles. The ISO-4217 code is KZT.
• .

3. • The word tenge in the Kazakh and most other Turkic
languages means a set of scales (cf the old Uzbek tenga
or the Tajik borrowed term tanga). The origin of the word
is the Turkic teŋ- which means being equal, balance. The
name of this currency is thus similar to the lira, pound
and peso. The name of the currency is related to the
Russian word for money Russian: деньги / den'gi, which
was borrowed from Turkic.

4. 2006 series
• The National Bank of Kazakhstan issued banknotes of
new series in 2006. They have the same values as the
previously existed ones.
• The 2006 series is far more exotic than its predecessors.
The obverse is vertical and the denomination is written in
Kazakh. All denominations depict the Astana Bayterek
monument, the flag of Kazakhstan, the Coat of arms, the
handprint with a signature of president Nazarbayev and
fragments of the national anthem. The main differences
across each denomination are only the colours, the values,
the underprint patterns.

5. • On the contrast, the reverses are more differentiated. The value
is written in Russian. Each denomination shows a unique
building and geography of Kazakhstan in the outline of
Kazakhstan border.
• The first printing of the 2,000 and 5,000 tenge notes issued in
2006 had misspellings of the word for "bank" (the correct
spelling "банкі" was misspelled "банқі"). The misspelling was
a politically sensitive issue due to the cultural and political
importance of the Kazakh language.[6]
