| Obverse description | Central effigy of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk depicted as a radiant head atop a flaming torch, his profile dividing two flanking vignettes: to the left, a figure representing agriculture, and to the right, a stylized industrial factory silhouette, together symbolizing the dual pillars of the Republic's modernization. Radiating rays of light emanate from the torch and surround the central design. The legend is inscribed along the upper periphery commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Republic. |

In the upper right, a decorative star motif is set within a stylized flower composed of five crescent shapes, a distinctly Ottoman-inspired ornamental device. The overall design is austere and typographic, with the lengthy patriotic quotation from Atatürk arranged in multiple lines across the reverse field. |
