| Obverse description | Central device depicting the Döner Kümbet (Revolving Mausoleum) of Kayseri, a cylindrical Seljuk-era funerary tower with a conical roof and intricately carved stone relief panels, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The inscription 'DÖNER KÜMBET' appears to the left and 'KAYSERİ · 1276' to the right of the tower, referencing the structure's Hijri construction date. The circular legend 'TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ' arcs across the upper field, flanked by small ornamental devices. The denomination '40 YTL' and the Gregorian year '2008' are inscribed in the lower field, separated by the mint mark. |
