Interesting fact
The 25 Kuruş coin from Turkey, minted between 1926 and 1928, is interesting because it was made of nickel, which is a durable and corrosion-resistant metal. This made it well-suited for circulation and helped to ensure that the coin would remain in good condition even after extensive use. Additionally, the use of nickel in the coin's composition was a deliberate choice made by the Turkish government in an effort to promote the use of domestic resources and reduce reliance on foreign materials. This decision not only helped to support the country's economy but also contributed to the coin's unique character and historical significance.
