Only info we get from our instrument is the bank angle.
I assume you are talking about the so-called turn coordinator.

This instrument contains a rate gyroscope and does not, repeat NOT, show any attitude whatsoever.

The display is totally misleading because to the ill-informed, it looks like bank angle.

edit: I can post an image, computer drawn by myself for instructional purposes, if you wish.
