Key information

About the Azerbaijan 5 Qəpik Coin

The 5 qəpik coin was introduced during Azerbaijan’s 2006 currency reform, which established the modern manat system. Each denomination in the series highlights a different national theme, with this coin focusing on architecture and built heritage.

Obverse

The obverse presents a raised outline of Azerbaijan positioned centrally, with defined edges that separate it clearly from the flat surrounding surface. Above the map, the inscription “AZƏRBAYCAN RESPUBLİKASI” curves along the upper rim, following the circular shape of the coin.

Below the map, the denomination “5 qəpik” is engraved, with the numeral larger and more prominent than the text. The spacing between elements is even, giving the design a clean and organised appearance. The surface is largely smooth, allowing the raised details to stand out.

Reverse

The reverse features a stylised architectural composition centred on three vertical structures. The central element is slightly curved and appears broader, with horizontal line detailing that suggests layered surfaces or structural bands. Flanking this are two more rectangular forms, each with straighter edges and simpler surfaces.

Behind these structures, a patterned band runs across the background, made up of repeating geometric motifs that add texture without overpowering the main design. At the bottom of the coin, the denomination “5 qəpik” appears again, positioned centrally and integrated into the composition.

The engraving uses a mix of smooth and textured areas, creating contrast between the architectural forms and the patterned background.
