Prior to this, residen...ts used different currency means. The last currency used is the Soviet ruble, which was in the country when Kazakhstan was part of the USSR. According to archaeologists, the first money that appeared on the territory of Kazakhstan is of Chinese origin. And this is not surprising, since the country was located on the Great Silk Road connecting Europe and Asia. Since the 6th century, coins of Turkic rulers have appeared in circulation. And from the 8th century, the steppe nomads of the region were invaded by the Arabs and settlements began to be carried out in silver dirhems. The first mints appeared in such ancient cities as Baraba, Ispidzhab, Taraz. The raw material for minting was the local silver mines located in the upper reaches of the Talas and Akhangaran rivers.
