Aanvullende informatie

Mor Gabriel, founded in 397 AD, is the oldest functioning Christian monastery in the world and has spent much of the last two decades fighting Turkish government and neighboring village claims on its land in a series of court battles that drew international condemnation. The Turkish Treasury's decision to issue a silver commemorative honoring it arrived while legal disputes over the monastery's property rights were still unresolved in the public memory — a diplomatic gesture that sits awkwardly against that record.
