DETAILS OF THE BANKNOTE ---

The Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey issued Turkish Old Lira banknotes in 15 different denominations, including this 5000000 Turkish Old Lira banknote (7th emission group 1970). They are part of the obsolete Old Turkish Lira banknotes series. The Central Bank of the Republic of Turkey started issuing these 5000000 Turkish Old Lira banknotes in 1997. They were withdrawn from circulation in 2006.

This bes milyon turk lirasi bill portrays Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Father of the Turks. The words ‘Turkiye Cumhuriyet Merkez Bankasi’ are printed on the paper banknote. The value of a 5,000,000 old Turkish Lira banknote is very low as a result of many years of hyperinflation in Turkey. Six zeroes were dropped and this banknote was replaced by a banknote of 5 new Turkish lira in 2005.
