| Reverse description | A finely detailed naturalistic relief depicts a White-headed Duck (Oxyura leucocephala) swimming in left profile, occupying the greater part of the square field; rippling water lines rendered beneath the bird suggest a tranquil aquatic habitat. In the background to the right, a second, smaller duck is shown swimming amid upright reeds, providing depth and ecological context. The Turkish vernacular name DiKKUYRUK is inscribed in bold letters along the lower field, with the Linnaean binomial Oxyura leucocephala rendered in italic script immediately below, identifying the endangered species with scientific precision. |
