Radiating lines emanate from behind the portrait, filling the field in a sunburst pattern. The legend 'ATATÜRKÜN DOĞUMUNUN 100.YILI' arcs around the upper periphery, while the commemorative dates '1881-1981' appear in the lower exergue. Decorative laurel sprigs flank the date inscription at the base. |
