"Question 48 was declared to be inadmissible (Annex II(A)(3) of the Rules of Procedure).
Question No 49 by Andreas Mölzer ()
For one year, Turkey has issued a one-lira coin (worth EUR 0.60) that bears an incredible similarity to the two-euro coin. For example, the portrait of Kemal Atatürk displayed on the one-lira coin can easily by mistaken for King Albert II. Owners of vending machines in the EU have suffered considerable losses on account of the technical similarities between the coins in terms of weight and thickness. There are also problems concerning sorting machines in banks, not to mention ordinary citizens, who may not even be aware of the risk of confusion.
How does the Commission view this latest move by Turkey? To what extent is it permitted for a country to issue coins bearing such striking similarities to the euro? What does the Commission intend to do to protect European citizens?"@en1
