| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a high-relief rendition of two wrestlers locked in combat, rendered in a dynamic, muscular style suggestive of traditional Turkish oil wrestling (yağlı güreş). The background features an architectural geometric lattice pattern evoking Ottoman tile-work. Along the upper arc, the legend 'GÜREŞLERİNİN' is incused, with '650.yılı' inscribed in the field to the upper left, together commemorating the 650th anniversary of the wrestling tournament. |
