| Reverse description | A stylised allegorical composition occupies the full field, depicting an open book at the centre from which radiate dynamic beams of light emanating from a central sun motif, symbolising enlightenment through education. Flanking the central design are two open books or tablets bearing script in various historical writing systems, referencing the breadth of human knowledge. The date '19 89' is split across the lower left and lower right of the field. The legend 'ÖĞRETMENLER GÜNÜ' curves along the upper periphery, and the inscription '24 KASIM' appears in the lower exergue, denoting Teacher's Day on 24 November. The engraver's signature is visible in the lower right field. |
