| Obverse description | Within a central raised circle, a decorative wreath composed of two wheat ears to the left and an olive branch to the right frames the denomination numeral '1' above the legend 'KURUŞ' and the date '2020' in the field. The Turkish crescent-and-star emblem (the tughra-style mint mark) appears below the date. The circular border legend 'TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ' runs along the outer rim, separated from the inner design by a raised beaded boundary. |

Part of Turkey's ongoing wildlife circulation series, this aluminium kuruş denomination has had almost no practical spending utility for decades — inflation long since rendered sub-lira coinage effectively worthless in everyday transactions. Issues like this survive primarily as collector sets rather than pocket change.
