FREE: Palestinian Mil Coinage 1935 - 1942 under British Administration

The listing, Palestinian Mil Coinage 1935 - 1942 under British Administration has ended.

For auction:

A lot of six (6) different Palestinian coins from the 1935-1942 era while Palestine was under British Administration. Picture 1 shows the dated sides of the 1 mil, 2 mils, and 5 mils lot. All of the coins are bronze, with the exception of the 1939 5 mils coin which is copper-nickel. Looking at picture 1 you can see the small rounded-hole non-copper-colored 5 mils coin. All of the coins are in VF-EF condition, and were demonetized by Israel in 1948.

Pictures 2 and 3 show the two sides of the 1941 2 mils coin, which is 28 mm in diameter or about 1.1". About 1.6 million of these were minted, so it is the second rarest coin in the lot.

Pictures 4 and 5 show both sides of the 1939 5 mils coin, of which 2 million were minted. This coin is 20 mm in diameter (a little more than 3/4").

Pictures 6 and 7 show both sides of the 1941 5 mils coin, of which 2.7 million were minted. This coin is identical to the 1939 in condition and diameter, except that it is bronze.

Pictures 8 and 9 show both sides of the rarest coin in the lot, the 1935 1 mil coin with only 700,000 minted. The coin is only slightly larger in diameter than the 5 mils coin at 21 mm. It is the most valuable coin in the lot. There is some mild discoloration on the non-date side of the coin.

Pictures 10 and 11 show both sides of the 1939 1 mil coin, of which 3.7 million were minted.

Pictures 12 and 13 show both sides of the 1942 1 mil coin, of which 4.5 million were minted.

Each coin will be placed in a 2x2 mylar-protected coin holder, and shipping will be done with tracking.
