UV HELPING TO ID TURKEY'S NOTES
Well there was 2 countries i thought I would never get more notes from. Turkey was one of them - Yugoslavia being the other !! As when i started collecting I had thousands of Turkish lira but here we are and a small note in with a lot of 10 notes turned out to be the 10 Lira note above and, as the size was a lot smaller that the others i have, maybe its time to look at Turkey again !!
As I said above its a 10 Lira note from 1970 with the obligatory picture of Ataturk on the front and on the reverse he is being presented with some some flower from children. The 1970 issue has two versions, neither printed in 1970, the first was in 1979 which has a security band which glows blue under UV. the other is the same but the security numbers glow a yellow/gold under UV as well. Its the second of these that this note is so printed in 1982.
