Comments

Only the 2011 version, the presence of parts is probably struck with a blocked border. The same happens on the obverse with a narrower font.

The Istanbul suspension bridge has the two continent landmasses separated by the strait (i.e. within the Istanbul city which is spread across the two continents)
