Silver 100 Mils coin minted in 1942 during the British Mandate of Palestine (1920-1948), under the reign of George VI of the United Kingdom. The obverse features an elegant olive branch, a traditional symbol of peace and prosperity in the Mediterranean region, accompanied by the name Palestine in the territory’s three official languages: English, Arabic and Hebrew. The reverse shows the denomination of 100 Mils in a circular, sober composition, with inscriptions also in three languages reflecting the cultural and administrative diversity of the territory during the British Mandate period. A specimen without noticeable wear in circulation, with very well-defined relief, excellent detail in the olive leaves, and an attractive patina of gray and golden tones, especially visible in the peripheral areas. Maintains a notable visual presence and excellent definition of the original elements. An interesting issue of 20th-century Palestinian numismatics, minted during World War II and especially valued for its historical context, its silver composition and its distinctive trilingual design.
