Cyprus: a true experience in north and south

19.05.12

Even though I have nothing naughtier than the odd parking ticket to my name, still my heart beats that little bit faster whenever I have to interact with authority. So it was with some trepidation that I handed my passport to the official at the border between north and south Cyprus. I was, naturally, waved through, but before I could relax, the transaction took a rather exciting turn; our Greek Cypriot driver pulled up a few feet beyond the checkpoint, made a phone call, then removed our cases from the car and instructed us to similarly eject. As a Turkish Cypriot hatchback roared into view and screeched alongside, we watched as another British couple disembarked and were waved towards our recently vacated taxi, as we were to theirs. As we passed, I commented that it felt like a Cold War hostage exchange. Reluctant to indulge my little fantasy, their reply was simply: "Oh, are you just starting your holiday in north Cyprus – lucky you, ours is just finishing."

Error coin from Cyprus

I have in my possession an error coin for quite a long time, and since then, I am trying to find out its real value. I spoke to many collectors of my island (Cyprus) and they confirmed that they never saw a similar error coin. After that, I went to the Central Bank of Cyprus for inspecting it, and I asked for an authentication paper. The chief of the department told me that it is authentic but unfortunately they do not issue authentication papers. It might be on a wrong planchet but I tink more...
