Thanks for Looking, Enjoy, & Happy Bidding! 5-AGOROT "DOMED" COINS BRACELET EARRINGS SET Ancient Widow's Mite Coins on a Modern Israeli 5 Agorot Coins No Longer Minted Coins from the New Israeli Sheqel series (1985-2007) INFORMATION ON THE AWESOME COINS: 5-Agorot Date of Issue: September 4, 1985 (Bronze color)January 1, 2008 is when they ceased to be legal tender in IsraelThe coin cost about 3 times its face value to mint, hence its disuse.Every year I go to Israel I look for them, but they are becoming harder and harder to find (especially now that they are no longer minted, no longer used, and no longer legal tender)The coin is so small in face value Israel stopped minting it a few years ago and then stopped using it (this is kind of like the New Testament story, the coin was such a small amount but the widow gave more than the others because she gave all that she had)Many Israelis do not know the significance of the ancient coin represented on back of this modern coin. They usually ask me why I'm looking for them because they are such a small amount, not even worth their time to count. So, I get to tell them how Yeshua (Jesus) used it as a teaching example (see Mark 12:41-44)OBVERSE: Image of a coin from the fourth year of the war of the Jews against Rome (also referred to as the lepton or mite). It is the side of the coin that depicts a lulav between two etrogim. There is also a menorah (the emblem of the State of Israel) with the word "Israel" in Hebrew, Arabic, and English. This is one of 20 possible coins called a "widow's mite"REVERSE: 5 Agorot in Hebrew and English along with the Date in Hebrew letters.DIAMETER: 19.5mm, WEIGHT: 3 gr, EDGE: Smooth, ALLOY: Copper: 92%, aluminum: 6%, nickel: 2%, DESIGN: by Gabi NeumannOther stuff: In 1987 a special "Hanukkah" issue had a Menorah and the Hebrew word Hanukkah on the reverse. In 1988 there was a special issue with the words "Israel’s 40th Anniversary" in Hebrew letters on the Reverse. Also, I've seen a misprinted double rim error which is quite rare.
