A minimalised version of the coat of arms that won the 1925 contest for a national emblem for Turkey. The Ministry of Education (Maarif Vekili, now Eğitim Bakanlığı) initiated a competition to select a national coat of arms. The winner was the design by painter Namık İsmail Bey. However, the choice was never approved as the official coat of arms.
