Obverse description Left-facing draped bust of President Saparmurat Niyazov occupying the central field, rendered in high relief with fine portrait detail including hair and jacket. The bust is flanked at the base by two crossed olive or laurel branches. The surrounding legend, separated from the inner field by a raised rim, reads in Turkmen in Latin script. The design conveys an official state portrait character consistent with commemorative coinage of the Niyazov era.
