| Obverse description | Left-facing effigy of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, founder and first President of the Turkish Republic, rendered in high relief. The portrait is unadorned and presented in a naturalistic style typical of early Republican-era Turkish coinage, engraved by Percy Metcalfe. The legend HAKİMİYET MİLLETİNDİR arcs around the upper field, with ANKARA appearing in the lower field. This coin, known as the Tam Cumhuriyet Altını (Full Republican Gold), circulates primarily as a bullion piece valued by weight, with newer date varieties generally preferred by the public, rendering earlier dates comparatively scarce. |

| Reverse description | Central field bears the denomination and a two-part date inscription enclosed within a finely detailed laurel wreath. The date system employs a dual-number format in which the suffix number is added to the base year 1923 to derive the actual year of issue; for example, 1923/47 corresponds to the year 1970. The legend TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ (Republic of Turkey) appears prominently within the design. The wreath is tied at the base and frames the inscriptions in a symmetrical, formal arrangement consistent with Republican-era Turkish gold coinage. |
