About the two currencies

The British Pound Sterling (GBP) is issued by the Bank of England and used in the United Kingdom; Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man issue their own pound notes at par, and Gibraltar, the Falkland Islands and St Helena have pounds pegged one-to-one. Scottish and Northern Irish banks also print sterling notes. They are legal currency but shops in England can refuse them, so travellers often swap them before leaving.

The Turkish Lira (TRY) is issued by the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye and used in Türkiye and Northern Cyprus. In 2005 six zeros were removed (1 new lira = 1,000,000 old lira). High inflation in the 2020s means the lira has lost value quickly, so tourist prices are often also shown in euros or dollars.
