NGC Expert Comments:
Though a small set, comprising just seven entries issued 1908-21, the series is quite historic and challenging to collect. All but two of the coins are NGC certified as Mint State, making them significant condition rarities. This coinage represents the triumph of the "Young Turks" revolution that overthrew the Ottoman emperor. Made of nickel instead of the traditional silver, it signified the egalitarian nature of the new order. Each of these coins is well illustrated and accompanied by a detailed essay on it rarity and background.
