| Reverse description | Central field depicts a single large sturgeon (Mersin balığı) in high relief, shown in profile swimming to the right, its distinctive rostrum, scutes, and fins rendered with fine naturalistic detail. Stylised water ripples appear in the upper field background, while dense aquatic grasses fill the lower foreground. Smaller fish are partially visible behind the main subject, enhancing the underwater composition. The upper legend arcs 'ÇARŞAMBA'NIN KIYMETLİSİ' above the central motif, with 'MERSİN BALIĞI' inscribed on a banner-like element across the upper field. |
