Comment

"Pay Kuponu" is the promotional coin that first started to be issued by Günaydın daily newspaper in Turkey. The Newspaper coupons (Pay kuponu) were tokens distributed by newspapers at the end of 1960's and beginning 1970's in Turkey. With these tokens, it was possible to purchase goods from Pay Kuponu shops, were the prices were mentioned in the Pay Kuponu as currency.
