Turkish Lira !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Attention ......attention ............!!!!!!!!!!!!


On January 1, 2009, the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey will introduce a new series of Turkish Lira banknotes which differ from, and will replace, the 2005 series called New Turkish Liras (Yeni Türk Lirasi).
There will be no change in the value of the Turkish lira. All values and conversions will remain the same.

The new "E9" series of banknotes will be called simply Turkish Lira (Türk Lirasi) instead of New Turkish Lira (Yeni Türk Lirasi) as on the older 2005-series notes.
Here's how the 2009-series Turkish Lira notes look

Will the old notes remain in circulation, and for how long will these be legal tender?

The aim is to withdraw 2005 (YTL) notes during 2009 when both notes will circulate together.

From 1 Jan 2010 to 31 Dec 2019 old YTL notes will no longer be valid in shops but can be exchanged for new notes at Banks.

From 1 Jan 2020 they YTL notes will be worthless.

Good question Tim .

here is the more details.

The old 2005 New Turkish Lira notes will be withdrawn during 2009 as the new "E9" series of TL bank notes is introduced. The goal is to withdraw most of the 2005-series notes during 2009.

The old YTL notes will be legal for payments during 2009.

Beginning on January 1, 2010 and until December 31, 2019, they will not be accepted for payment, but may be exchanged for 2009-series notes at any branch of the Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey, or Türkiye Ziraat Bankasi. (Ziraat bank has got branch in North Cyprus)

As of January 1, 2020, the YTL notes will be worthless except as collector's items.

Thanks for that (and to Halil for the same information) - I can breathe easy again. I have a few notes in my drawer and it is nice to know they will be legal tender for a while yet!
