The catalog description&lt;sup&gt;[1]&lt;/sup&gt; noted, &quot;[[Israel|ISRAEL]]. 10 Lirot, 1968. Berne Mint. ANACS PROOF-68. 20th Anniversary of independence. A tremendous nearly flawless example, this exceptional piece delivers resounding luster and sharp details, with essentially no evidence of handling on the surfaces. An impressive and wholesome specimen.&quot; Rapid inflation destroyed the value of the 1949 series and the coinage was reformed in 1960 to 100 agorot = one lira. This NCLT is one of a series struck 1967-74 in this module, which superseded the five lirot used heretofore. A similar 100 lirot was struck in gold.<br /> <br /> ''Recorded mintage:'' 49,996 plus 20,494 proofs. <br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' 26 g, 0.935 fine silver, 37 mm diameter.<br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' KM-51. <br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * Michael, Thomas, and Tracy L.
