Reverse description Within a raised inner circle, a detailed panoramic view of Istanbul's historic skyline is depicted, featuring minarets, towers including Galata Tower, and waterfront structures rendered in fine relief. Above the cityscape, the legendary Ottoman aviator Hezarfen Ahmet Celebi is shown in mid-flight wearing artificial wings with bat-like membranes, soaring across the sky with radiating arc lines suggesting his trajectory. To the right, clouds and a compass rose emblem appear in the field. The circular legend HEZARFEN AHMET CELEBI runs along the upper periphery, while 1ST WORLD AIR GAMES TURKEY curves along the lower border.
