K Atatürk inside a broad returning oval
A tall angular K opens the mark before a readable rising Atatürk group. A broad fine oval returns beneath and around the surname, with a small low finishing hook. Compare the pointed upper letter strokes with the rounded surrounding line: the name remains visible inside a flourish that gives it considerably greater breadth.

Opening, letter body and finish
The opening stays near the height of the body letters. The opening-to-body ratio is 1.32×, while the whole image is 2.90 times as wide as it is tall. The rightmost ink finishes above the writing line; look at this ending separately from the slant of the letters themselves.
Loops and the lower flourish
The sample contains 3 enclosed loops and 2 main ink groups. The letterforms carry the main horizontal movement; there is no long lower underline detected beneath their band.
