Reverse description The central vignette presents an intaglio portrait of the celebrated Ottoman architect Mimar Sinan in three-quarter view, wearing a period turban, with his name and life dates "1490–1588" inscribed beneath. To the left, a detailed line-engraved rendering of the Selimiye Mosque in Edirne rises against an uncluttered background, its four slender minarets and expansive central dome rendered with precision. A stylised arabesque and floral ornamental panel in purple occupies the far left margin, providing compositional balance.
