| Reverse description | A finely detailed high-relief effigy of a striped hyena (Hyaena hyaena) is depicted in a standing three-quarter pose occupying the right and center of the field, its characteristic coarse fur and body markings rendered with naturalistic precision. The animal faces left with its head turned slightly toward the viewer, its tapered tail lowered. The legend 'ÇİZGİLİ SIRTLAN' is inscribed in a curved arc along the upper left periphery of the mirrored proof field. The plain lower field provides a stark contrast to the frosted sculptural relief of the animal, emphasizing the depth of the strike. |
