| Reverse description | The brass center depicts a finely modelled, high-relief effigy of the Byerley Turk horse in full gallop to the right, its mane and tail flowing dynamically, set against a stippled circular field suggestive of a full moon or medallion ground. A stylized grassy baseline grounds the composition. The copper-nickel outer ring bears the legend 'BYERLEY TÜRK ATI' arched along the upper periphery in spaced Latin capital lettering. The overall design celebrates the Byerley Turk, one of the three founding sires of the modern Thoroughbred breed. |
