Interesting fact
The 5 Lira coin from Turkey, which was minted in 1982, features a unique design element that sets it apart from other coins. The crescent symbol on the coin is depicted facing to the right, which is a departure from the traditional Islamic convention of depicting the crescent facing to the left. This design choice was made to symbolize the country's secularism and modernization efforts during the time.
