| Reverse description | Large central figure of Corporal Seyit Ali (Seyit Onbaşı) depicted from the rear in a powerful, straining pose as he carries a heavy naval shell, rendered in bold high relief against a mirror-proof field. The dynamic composition emphasizes the physical effort of the legendary Ottoman soldier, celebrated for single-handedly loading a 275 kg artillery shell during the Dardanelles campaign. The circular border legend reads 'BİRİNCİ DÜNYA SAVAŞI VE ÇANAKKALE ZAFERİ'NİN 100. YILI', commemorating the centenary of the First World War and the Victory at Gallipoli. |
