About UAE Dirham (د.إ)

The United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED, ISO 4217 code 784, symbol د.إ or DH) is the official currency of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), issued by the Central Bank of the UAE (CBUAE, est. 1980). Subdivided into 100 fils. Banknotes: AED5, AED10, AED20, AED50, AED100, AED200, AED500, AED1000 (the highest denomination; current series features UAE landmarks — Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Burj Al Arab, Dubai Frame, Etihad Towers, Sharjah Central Souk, Khalifa Tower); coins: 25 fils, 50 fils, AED1. AED is pegged to USD at AED3.6725 per USD since November 1997 (a hard peg via the CBUAE Currency Board mechanism). UAE is the Gulf region's most economically diversified economy — Dubai is a major global financial center (DIFC) and trade hub, Abu Dhabi holds ~95% of UAE oil reserves (the world's 7th-largest proven reserves at ~98 billion barrels per BP Statistical Review). The UAE Dirham was introduced 1973, replacing the Bahraini Dinar (in Abu Dhabi) and Qatar + Dubai Riyal (in other emirates) after the UAE federation formed 1971.

About Turkish Lira ()

The Turkish Lira (TRY, ISO 4217 code 949, symbol ₺) is the official currency of the Republic of Türkiye (Turkey) and Northern Cyprus, issued by the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye (CBRT, est. 1930). Subdivided into 100 kuruş. Banknotes: ₺5, ₺10, ₺20, ₺50, ₺100, ₺200 (the current 'E-9 Emission' series introduced 2009 features Atatürk on all denominations + scientific/cultural figures on the reverse — Mehmet Akif Ersoy, Cahit Arf, Ahmet Yesevi, Itri, Ohanesyan, Aşık Veysel, Fatma Aliye); coins: 1 kr, 5 kr, 10 kr, 25 kr, 50 kr, ₺1. Türkiye removed six zeros from its currency on January 1, 2005 — 'New Turkish Lira' (Yeni Türk Lirası, YTL) at 1 new = 1,000,000 old, simply renamed back to 'Türk Lirası' (TL/TRY) on January 1, 2009. Türkiye has experienced repeated severe currency crises — the 2018 lira crisis, the 2021 'lira shock' under President Erdoğan's unorthodox 'rate cuts cure inflation' theory, and ongoing inflation crisis (peak ~85% in October 2022, ~64% in May 2024 per TÜİK). The CBRT abandoned heterodox policies under Mehmet Şimşek + Hafize Erkan in June 2023.
