In 1922–23, a new coinage was introduced consisting of aluminium-bronze 21⁄2, 5 and 10 kuruş and nickel 25 kuruş. They were last issued in 1928. These were the last Turkish coins to bear inscriptions in the Arabic script.
In 1934, silver 1 lira coins were struck, followed the next year by a new coinage consisting of cupro-nickel 1, 5 and 10 kuruş, and silver 25 and 50 kuruş and 1 Turkish lira. Aluminium-bronze 1⁄4-kuruş coins were issued between 1940 and 1942, the last coins to bear this denomination. Nickel-brass replaced silver in the 25 kuruş in 1944, with brass 1, 21⁄2, 5, 10 and 25 kuruş introduced between 1947 and 1949. The silver 50 kuruş and 1 lira were discontinued in 1948, with cupro-nickel 1 lira issued in 1957.
Between 1958 and 1963, bronze 1, 5 and 10 kuruş and steel 25 kuruş, 1 and 21⁄2 lira were introduced, followed by steel 50 kuruş and 5 lira in 1971 and 1974, respectively. Aluminium replaced bronze in 1975. These coins were issued up to 1980.
In 1981, with inflation gaining pace, aluminium 1-, 5- and 10-lira coins were introduced. Higher denominations followed: 20, 50 and 100 lira in 1984, 25 lira in 1985, 500 lira in 1988, 1,000 lira in 1990, 2,500 lira in 1991, 5,000 lira in 1992, 10,000 Turkish lira in 1994, 25,000 lira in 1995, 50,000 lira in 1997, and 100,000 lira in 1999. This culminated in 250,000-lira coins in 2002.
Second Turkish lira[edit]
2005–2008[edit]
In the transitional period between 1 January 2005 and 31 December 2008, the second Turkish lira was officially called 'new Turkish lira' in Turkey. Coins were introduced in 2005 in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 25 and 50 new (yeni) kuruş and 1 new (yeni) lira. The 1 new kuruş was minted in brass and the 5, 10 and 25 new kuruş in cupro-nickel, whilst the 50 new kuruş and 1 new Turkish lira are bimetallic. All coins show portraits of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk.
To the dismay of the European Central Bank, the sizes and compositions of the 50 new kuruş and 1 new lira coins clearly resemble those of the €1 and €2 coins respectively. (See comparison photo in [1] of 1 ₺ coin and €2 coin.) This could cause confusion in the eurozone. It also caused trouble to businesses using vending machines (particularly at airports) in the eurozone since a number of vending machines at the time accepted the 1 new Turkish lira coin as a €2 coin. Since €2 is worth roughly four times more, vending machines affected had to be upgraded at the expense of their owners.
Since 2009[edit]
From 1 January 2009, the 'new' was removed from the second Turkish lira, its official name in Turkey becoming just 'Turkish lira' again; new coins without the word 'yeni' were introduced in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 kuruş and 1 lira. Also, the inner and outer alloys of the 50 kuruş and 1 lira coins were reversed.

The Ottoman lira was the currency of Ottoman Empire between 1844[1] and 29 October 1923[citation needed] when it was replaced by the Turkish lira. The Ottoman lira remained in circulation until the end of 1927.[2]
The Ottoman lira replaced the kuruş as the principal unit of currency in the Ottoman Empire, with the kuruş continuing to circulate as a subdivision of the lira, with 100 kuruş = 1 lira. The para also continued to be used, with 40 para = 1 kuruş.
Until the 1930s, the Arabic script was used on Turkish coins and banknotes, with پاره for para, غروش for kuruş and ليرا for lira (تورك ليراسي for 'Turkish lira'). In European languages, the kuruş was known as the piastre, whilst the lira was known as the livre in French.
Between 1844 and 1881, the lira was on a bimetallic standard, with 1 lira = 6.61519 grams pure gold (roughly 9/10 of a Sovereign) = 99.8292 grams pure silver. In 1881, the gold standard was adopted and continued until 1914. World War I saw Turkey effectively depart from the gold standard with the gold lira being worth about nine lira in paper money by the early 1920s.
Turkish Coins Identification
Between 1844 and 1855, coins were introduced in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20 para, 1⁄2, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20 kuruş and 1⁄4, 1⁄2, 1, 21⁄2 and 5 lira. The para denominations were struck in copper, the kuruş in silver and the lira in gold. The 1 para was discontinued in 1859, with the higher copper denominations ceasing production between 1863 and 1879. In 1899, billon 5 and 10 para were introduced, followed by nickel 5, 10, 20 and 40 para in 1910. Gold coins continued to be minted after the abolition of the gold standard, even into the 1920s, but their value far exceeded the value of the equivalent denominations in paper currency.
