| Reverse description | The reverse features a detailed depiction of the Kızılada Lighthouse near Fethiye, shown as a tall cylindrical tower with a lantern room, set upon a rocky coastal base with keeper's buildings at its foot and waves breaking below. Radiating beams of light emanate from the lantern in all directions, filling the field with incised lines suggesting the sweep of the lighthouse beam. Rocky cliffs and sparse vegetation flank the structure, and seabirds are visible in the upper right field. The curved legend KIZILADA FENERİ-FETHİYE arcs along the upper border of the coin. |
