| Obverse description | Left-facing truncated bust of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, founder and first President of the Turkish Republic, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair. The circular legend TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ runs around the periphery in Latin script. The portrait is unadorned and presented in a naturalistic, modernist style consistent with mid-twentieth-century Turkish coinage. |
