You’re right, I looked at a 1907s Peso O/S with the Wilson dies I bought from Jeff, and found that it was the only Peso that is “double struck “ with the Wilson dies.
I was wondering why it didn’t look “blended” with parts of both pieces,(  Wilson and Peso), that’s when I noticed it was double struck, and that made it hard to see the host coin………..the second strike was slightly off-center ‼️‼️🎯👍

European Coins / Re: Türkiye / Turkey new 5 Lira Coin

Beautiful coin from Turkiye. Glad to see you back Renal. I hope you and your family have been keeping well. I have done some trades with another friend in Turkiye, so my collection has grown since we last traded. I look forward to seeing your new site. I'm going to need that new coin now.

Glad you liked it Steve.

The website is online now. and since you asked; it feels less of a shameless self-promotion to share the link :D

The English pages are a subset of the whole content as I am translating the originals gradually, as I can find the time for it.
(All your comments; positive or otherwise are very much welcome)

Thank you for the link Renal. I have saved it, but it's getting late here, so I'll check it out tomorrow.

Cheers

Steve :)

Thanks for sharing the link. Very interesting and informative site.
I hope the English pages will grow soon because I don't speak Turkish.
I am not a collector of world coins like Steve. Yet, I do have a type set of the New Lira coins. I also have some of the circulation commemoratives. But quite a few are still missing. And of course, I need to add the 5 Lira coin to the set.


By the way, I have a question about the current 200 Lira banknote. Perhaps, you might be able to answer it.
I see on numista that the number of printed 200 Lira banknotes for Series I (2009) and Series II (2013) is given on numista. Any idea where numista got these figures? Are these figures accurate?
Printing figures for the other series are not given.
I searched the website of the Turkish Central Bank. You can find the number of banknotes in circulation there. But not the number of printed banknotes. At least, I wasn't able to find them.
So, I am wondering here the information about the printed number comes from.
