| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a detailed relief composition of the Orkhon monument complex, showing two tall runic steles with a monumental gateway structure at left and an ornately crowned column on a tortoise pedestal at right, set against a stylised mountainous horizon. A traditional yurt is visible in the lower right field. The upper field carries the legend ORHUN ANITLARI in large Latin characters, beneath which appears the phrase Orkun bengü taşları in Latin script followed by the same text rendered in Old Turkic runic script. Along the lower field the legend Kök Türk is inscribed in Latin characters, with the corresponding Old Turkic runic transliteration immediately below. |
