Historical Context: The 1923 100 Kuruş gold coin marks the proclamation of the Republic of Turkey on October 29, 1923. This issue symbolizes the birth of a modern, secular nation-state, a break from the Ottoman Empire under Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. İsmet İnönü, a pivotal general in the War of Independence and Atatürk's closest associate, was instrumental in the Republic's establishment. This coin is a tangible artifact of Turkey's foundational year and its transition to national sovereignty.
Artistry: The design of the 1923 100 Kuruş reflects the new Republic's identity, shifting from Ottoman calligraphic traditions
