Reverse description The oval reverse depicts a naturalistic botanical study of Campanula betulifolia, a rare bellflower endemic to Turkey, rendered in high relief against a deeply recessed, mirror-like proof field. Multiple drooping bell-shaped blossoms and buds are shown on branching stems with characteristic foliage, filling the composition with fine botanical detail. The engraver's signature appears at lower centre of the field. A curved legend along the lower border reads AKCACИНGIRAK to the left and Campanula betulifolia in italic script to the right, providing both the Turkish vernacular name and the Linnaean binomial of the species.
