Turkish Banknotes
Several Turkish banknotes have reached New Zealand from soldiers in the Middle East. They are said to have been dropped behind the New Zealanders’ lines in Greece by the Germans. They appear genuine and bear the imprint of an English printing firm, but whether they are of any real value, even in Turkey, and what the purpose was in dropping them among the New Zealanders is not clear.
