You are probably better off selling it on ebay given that it is no longer legal tender and the deadline for exchanging has passed.
Following a period of hyper inflation Turkey knocked 6 zeros off its currency and in real terms your coin is currently worth about 1p.

No bureau will take coins IMO especially coins that are not legal tender.0
