| Reverse description | The reverse displays a richly detailed Seljuk-style relief composition representing the zodiac sign of Aquarius (Kova), inspired by medieval Anatolian manuscript iconography. A central anthropomorphic figure rendered in traditional Seljuk artistic convention is depicted kneeling and pouring water, surrounded by fantastical hybrid creatures including a canine and a reptilian beast, all set against a mirror-polished field strewn with small stars and dots. The engraver's initial 'N' appears in the lower field near the base of the composition. The legend 'KOVA' (Turkish for Aquarius) is incused along the upper rim in bold Latin letters. |
