| Reverse description | The central field depicts two White-headed Ducks (Oxyura leucocephala), known in Turkish as 'Dikkuyruk', shown in profile floating on stylised water lines; the larger bird faces left in the foreground while a second, smaller bird is visible to the right with its tail raised, characteristic of the species. The scene is enclosed within a recessed inner circle. The upper circular legend reads 'ANADOLU'YA ÖZGÜ KUŞLAR' (Birds Endemic to Anatolia) and the lower legend reads 'DİKKUYRUK', both in raised Latin characters separated from the field by a raised inner rim. The naturalistic rendering highlights the distinctive rounded head and compact body of this endangered diving duck. |
