| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold relief depiction of the Capricorn (Oğlak) zodiac sign rendered in the Seljuk artistic tradition, showing a horned goat-fish creature ridden by an armoured figure, with a second horned beast to the right, all set against a mirror-polished field scattered with small stars. The composition draws directly from medieval Seljuk iconographic sources, conveying a distinctly Anatolian stylistic character. The legend OĞLAK is inscribed in bold letters across the upper field. The design fills the oval format to the reeded border. |
