Turkey Set of 4 Banknotes 1982–2002 – E7 Series UNC
Product Description
This Turkey Set of 4 Banknotes features the core high-denomination notes from the **7th Emission Group (E7 Series)**, issued under **Law No. 1211 of 14 January 1970**. The set includes: 10 Lira (1982), 100 Lira (1983–1984), 500 Lira (1983–1984), and 1000 Lira (1986–1988)—all from the **Old Turkish Lira era (1923–2005)**. Each note is in **uncirculated (UNC) condition**, meaning it remains pristine, crisp, and untouched by circulation. These notes were **demonetized between 1997 and 2002** and are no longer legal tender.
United by the portrait of **Mustafa Kemal Atatürk** on the obverse, the reverses celebrate Turkey’s cultural, literary, and historical identity:
- 10 Lira (Pick #193, 1982): Young students offering flowers to Atatürk—a tender symbol of national reverence
- 100 Lira (Pick #194, 1983–1984): Poet Mehmet Akif Ersoy, his Ankara home, and the first quatrains of the İstiklâl Marşı (National Anthem)
- 500 Lira (Pick #195, 1983–1984): The historic Clock Tower of İzmir, representing Aegean resilience
- 1000 Lira (Pick #196, 1986–1988): Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror with the Istanbul skyline, including Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque
Together, these notes form a powerful narrative of Turkey’s 20th-century identity—bridging republican ideals, poetic heritage, regional pride, and imperial legacy.
