Reverse description The central device depicts the Gurbansoltan-eje monument in Ashgabat, a sculptural group rendered in high relief atop a stepped pedestal, flanked on either side by stylized geometric forms evoking collapsed or fractured architectural elements commemorating the 1948 earthquake. The dates 1948-1998 appear prominently on the pedestal face, with the denomination 1000 MANAT inscribed below. The surrounding legend reads AŞGABAT YER TITREMESINE 50 YYL above and GURBANSOLTAN EJE YADYGÄRLIGI below, separated by bullet stops, all in Latin script along the coin's periphery.
