YENI LIRASI as coin name.
In a literal translation, the name of the coin "yeni lirasi" (it is in this format that the denomination is indicated) is translated from the Turkish language as "new lira".
Coins with this denomination (more precisely, in a more complete format — "yeni Türk lirası") are dated to the period 2005-2008.
Before that, the circulating coins of Turkey were marked "lira", and after that — "lirasi".
That is, yeni lirasi is a temporary, transitional, intermediate name of the main Turkish currency and coin.
