Right underneath, the prominent designation "RESMÎ" marks its exclusive role for administrative and state use. The face value is housed in a clean inner square at the lower center, clearly reading "30 KURUŞ". This specimen bears a dark, heavy postmark line slicing diagonally from the lower-middle border up through the center right, indicating official cancellation.
