Reverse description To the left, a detailed bust of the celebrated Ottoman-Turkish poet Yahya Kemal Beyatlı faces three-quarters left, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. To the right, lines from his famous poem dedicated to Istanbul are inscribed in a sweeping arc across the field. In the lower centre, a stylised skyline of Istanbul featuring minarets and domes is depicted in low relief. Below the skyline, the name 'Yahya Kemal Beyatlı' and his birth and death years '1884-1958' are inscribed in two lines. The reverse is bordered by a beaded inner circle.
