Description:
White-red packet with gold stripes on the top and bottom background. In the center – a red circle with the silhouette of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’s profile and the inscription „TÜRKİYE CUMHURİYETİ 1923‑1983“ and „CUMHURİYETİMİZİN 60. YILI“. On top – a simple paper strip „FİATI 70 TL“. The packet is solid, does not have a warning sticker in Lithuanian – this indicates that the packet is intended for the domestic market.
Value assessment:
-
Collectible value: Medium–high – the anniversary edition with Atatürk on the occasion of his 60th birthday is interesting for collectors of Turkish history. Rare if the price has remained in TL time and has not been changed.
-
Condition assessment: not torn, not frayed, film and tape appear to be in good condition - great for a collector's item.
-
Historical data and popularity: Special editions marked by such anniversaries (1923 founding, 1983 – 60 years) are among them in demand at collector auctions. However, due to the small circulation and limited geography (Turkish domestic market), the number of buyers abroad is not large.
