Other than the variety of monetary aggregates, we tried different ways of including the interest rate into the models to ensure the robustness of our results. Our analysis shows that the currency substitution in fact happened with Lira.}, journal = {American Journal of Applied Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
