Israeli sheqel
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The sheqel was the currency of Israel between 1980 and 1985. It replaced the Israeli pound or lira at a rate of 1 sheqel = 10 lira. It was subdivided into 100 agorot. After suffering from high inflation, the sheqel was replaced by the new sheqel in 1985 at a rate of 1 new sheqel = 1,000 "old" sheqalim.
