| Reverse description | A high-relief bust portrait of the Sufi scholar and poet Ali Hamadoni (1314–1384) occupies the central field, depicted facing slightly left, wearing a traditional turban and robes with a beard. The portrait is set within a raised inner circle against a dark, contrasting outer border. A bilingual legend in gilt Cyrillic and Latin lettering arcs around the periphery, reading 'АЛӢ ҲАМАДОНӢ • ALI HAMADONI'. The birth and death years '1314' and '1384' flank the portrait within the inner field, and the commemorative numeral '700', denoting the 700th anniversary of his birth, appears at the base flanked by laurel sprigs, highlighted in gilt. |
