The Göbekli Tepe coin was issued to commemorate the 11,000-year-old archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe in Turkey, which is considered one of the most important and groundbreaking discoveries in the field of archaeology in recent decades. The site consists of numerous temples and structures that predate the invention of agriculture and writing, and its discovery has challenged traditional assumptions about the rise of civilization. The coin's design features an image of the famous "Vulture Stone" from Göbekli Tepe, which depicts a vulture and a circle of animals, and is believed to represent the earliest known example of monumental sculpture.
