Reverse description The reverse is dominated by an intaglio vignette of Mevlâna Celâleddin-i Rumi (1207–1273), the Sufi mystic and poet, seated in a meditative pose and attired in traditional robes and turban, positioned at centre-left. Behind him rises the distinctive fluted conical turquoise dome of the Mevlâna Mausoleum (Yeşil Türbe) in Konya, flanked by a minaret, with whirling dervish figures visible at lower centre. An ornate arabesque panel in dark red occupies the left margin, and the denomination 5000 appears at lower left and upper right within multicolour guilloche borders.
