christian_cyclist Valued Member United States 284 Posts	Posted 03/08/2009 6:48 pm I have a 10 Sheqalim coin. As the subject line says, how do I read this date? I tried looking up some sites that explain the symbols, their order, and meaning but I was unable to match anything. The fonts on the website look different than what is on the coin. Also, did I get the obverse (left) and reverse (right) order correct? -- Boris Report this Post to the Staff

They have a good date guide included at the beginning of the Israeli section. This one would date 5743 or 1983AD. The date reads right to left but they are still not that easy to figure out.
