About this banknote
The Central Bank of Turkey (Türkiye Cumhuriyet Merkez Bankası) issued the 100 lira banknote (Pick 226) on January 1, 2009, as part of the E-9 Emission Group. This series marked the transition from the "New Turkish lira" to the "Turkish lira," following the removal of the "new" designation introduced during the 2005 currency revaluation.
The obverse features a portrait of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk on the right side. The reverse displays Buhurizade Mustafa Efendi, known as Itri, along with musical notes, instruments, and a Mevlevi figure. The banknote measures 154 x 72 mm and includes security features such as a holographic stripe and a solid security thread with the inscription "TL 100."
