<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KLJ, post: 30932, member: 1910&quot;]Turkey is in the process of re-valuing the Turkish lira.&nbsp; Until recently, the exchange rate was about 3.5 million lira to the dollar.&nbsp; (When I was there I used 20,000,000 lira notes regularly, and still have one.&nbsp; It was always fun to ask &quot;Do you have change for a twenty million?&quot;)&nbsp; The subdivision of the lira - like cent to dollar - was the kuru.&nbsp; Technically, it was still in use, but with a value of 3.5m lira to the dollar, minting of it had ceased.&nbsp; They are being minted again, now that they&#039;ve revalued the Turkish lira by taking six (6!) zeroes off everything.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
