Post by: RenaL on April 10, 2009, 01:04:34 AM

Turkish State Mint released two coins commemorating USA President Barack Obama's visit to Turkey.

One of the coins is silver, the other one is gold.

Previously in 2000 two other coins were struck to commemorate Bill Clinton's visit.

I like the Obama coins, but the Clinton coins don't do anything for me.
