| Reverse description | Central design features a three-dimensional representation of the Bilge Tonyukuk memorial stele, depicted as a tall, slightly tapering stone monument densely covered with Old Turkic runic inscriptions across its entire face. The stele is rendered with a frosted finish against a deeply mirrored proof field, creating a strong visual contrast. The circular legend arching around the upper periphery reads 'BİLGE TONYUKUK ABİDESİ'NİN DİKİLİŞİNİN 1300. YILI', commemorating the 1300th anniversary of the erection of the Bilge Tonyukuk monument. The legend is presented entirely in Latin script, with the lower field left plain to accentuate the sculptural quality of the central device. |
