The Turkish Lira has undergone various changes in its design and value over the years. In 2005, a new Turkish Lira was introduced, replacing the old one at a rate of 1 new Lira to 1,000,000 old Lira. This change aimed to simplify transactions and reduce confusion caused by the previously high denominations.

Banknotes are available in denominations of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 200 Lira, while coins are issued in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 25, 50 kuruş, and 1 Lira. The value of the Turkish Lira can fluctuate significantly due to various factors, including political stability, economic conditions, and inflation rates.
