| Beschrijving keerzijde | The oval reverse depicts a detailed front-facing architectural rendering of the Balıkesir Clock Tower (Balıkesir Saat Kulesi), a historic Ottoman-era landmark, rising prominently in the center of the field against a mirror-polished background. The tower is rendered in high relief, showing its multi-tiered stone construction, arched windows, ornamental frieze with a floral medallion on the upper belfry section, a domed cupola, and a tall finial spire at the apex. The legend 'BALIKESİR SAAT KULESİ' is arranged in spaced Latin capitals along the left and right periphery of the oval field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Part of the Turkish mint's long-running provincial monuments series, this issue commemorates the clock tower in Balıkesir, built in 1902 during the late Ottoman period when municipal clock towers were being erected across Anatolia as symbols of modernization aligned with Tanzimat-era reforms. Dozens of such towers were commissioned in provincial capitals between roughly 1880 and 1910, many funded locally rather than from Istanbul.
The 15.55g weight places it squarely in the half-troy-ounce format favored by the Darphane for this series throughout the 2000s and 2010s.
