Honoring the Legendary Mongolian Ruler

These releases celebrate the extraordinary personality of legendary ruler Chinggis Khaan. He appears enthroned and powerful in meticulous detail, with finely rendered folds in his robes and elaborate throne ornamentation demonstrating the highest precision of modern high-relief striking. The motif is based on the monumental statue of Chinggis Khaan measuring an impressive 700 × 630 × 750 cm, depicting him in his youth in 1189 at the beginning of the Great Mongol Empire’s rise. The statue is entirely covered in Mongolian gold, with the imperial throne bearing the golden seal of the empire.

Radiant sunbeams spread in the background, symbolizing both power and enlightenment. The surrounding landscape depicts the mountains and plains that once formed Chinggis Khaan’s empire. The obverse features a majestic eagle—the classic hunting animal of Mongolian culture, symbolizing strength, courage, freedom, and cultural heritage. The radially arranged guilloche pattern harmoniously surrounds the Mongol Bank’s coat of arms, with finely polished surface finish creating an impressive lustrous effect.
