| Obverse description | Within a wreath composed of a wheat ear on the left and an olive branch on the right, the denomination '500' appears in large numerals at centre, with 'LİRA' inscribed below and the date '1983' in the lower field. The Turkish crescent and star emblem is positioned in the upper field above the wreath, serving as the national symbol of the Republic of Turkey. The design is rendered in a clean, modern style with no portrait, the plain field providing contrast to the raised vegetal border elements. |
