If you become neutral, I'd be happy. It's not invasion coin. It's anniversary of Operation Atilla. The Greek Cypriot organisation EOKA, which wanted to make the island part of Greece, started massacres and the Turkish army carried out an operation in 1974 to protect the lives of the Turkish Cypriots. With this operation Cyprus didn't become a part of Greece. This coin so valuable to us because we showed solidarity with Turkish Cypriots.
