Zan,some of the Turkish Cypriots in northern Cyprus currently accept the Cypriot Pound,but eventually,the Euro will most likely drive the Turkish Lira out of circulation,because the Euro is worth more (nearly as much as the US$!).As Gresham's Law says,'Good money drives the bad money out of circulation'.

I'm not sure what the official currency is of the Akrotiri & Dhekelia Sovereign Base Areas is,but I can guess that it is the good old Pound Sterling.

As ignorant as ever. You claim to be a numismatist yet you know nothing about the currencies of Cyprus or the world. Firstly, the EUR is worth ~40% more than the USD. Secondly, the CYP and EUR are not legal tender in the occupied part of the island: if someone accepts them for payment, it is on a forex basis, the same as some shops in NZ may accept US dollar bills (at a cost!), as a convenience for the customer. And your guess is wrong. The CYP is the currency of the SBAs.

Your knowledge of our currencies is as good as your knowledge of catholicism and sexuality. So why don't you shut up?

Devil,have you tried putting a sock in it? You are a real dickhead whose favourite hobby is wanking yourself! The northern part of Cyprus isn't even a real country.The Government of the Republic of Cyprus is the only legal government for the whole island,end of story.

I know a lot more about Roman Catholicism than you will ever know,considering that they're barbarians.I'm a Protestant,& that isn't going to change any time soon.

Your world is growing smaller by the day my friend...

You may protest too much, but your unchristian views would not be accepted by any Protestant church (except perhaps some extremist offshoot sects of the Southern Baptists). Religious extremism - of any type - is anathema, as Jesus pointed out (read St Matthew). BTW, I was ordained as a deacon of the Presbyterian Church of England, and I have studied theology and comparative theology. The PCE was much more puritan than your Anglican church, but I have learnt tolerance, through wide travel. The only thing I remain intolerant about is intolerance.
