| Obverse description | The central field is divided by a sinuous horizon line into two panoramic registers: the upper register depicts Mount Ararat (Ağrı Dağı) rendered in fine relief with deeply striated slopes rising to a snow-capped volcanic cone, while the lower register presents a detailed bird's-eye view of İshak Paşa Sarayı, the celebrated 18th-century Ottoman-Persian palace complex in Doğubayazıt, with its domed mosque, minarets, and multi-tiered stone courtyard buildings set against a mountainous backdrop. The province name AĞRI and the inscription İSHAK PAŞA SARAYI appear in the upper field. The bilingual peripheral legend reads TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ to the left and REPUBLIC OF TURKEY to the right, separated by a crescent-and-star device at the top, with the denomination 20 Türk Lirası and the date 2014 inscribed along the lower border. The mint mark appears in the lower central field. |
