| Obverse description | The oval field is divided diagonally into a mirror-polished silver lower register and a deeply blackened upper register, evoking a nocturnal sky. At the top, a crescent moon and six-pointed star — the emblems of the Turkish Republic — are struck in relief against the dark field, surrounded by a scattering of small five-pointed stars. Two Seljuk-style rosette ornaments flank the central legends. The inscription 'SELÇUKLU DÖNEMİ BURÇ TASVİRLERİ' (Seljuk Period Zodiac Depictions) appears in two lines across the centre, with 'TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ' arcing along the upper rim and the denomination and date '25 YTL 2008' inscribed along the lower rim. |
