| Reverse description | A detailed high-relief depiction of the Yelkenkaya Lighthouse occupies the central field, showing the cylindrical stone tower surmounted by its lantern room, flanked by a lattice-work iron support structure and an adjacent keeper's building set upon a rocky outcrop. The design is rendered with fine architectural precision against a deeply mirrored proof field. The circular border legend 'YELKENKAYA FENERİ' arcs across the upper portion, while 'KOCAELİ' appears at the base, both separated by raised bullet points. |
