Israel 10 Agorot 1960 to 1980

Israel minted these 10 agorot coins with the date palm between 1960 and 1980. They are made of aluminum bronze (1960 to 1980, see second picture), copper-nickel (1973 to 1979), and pure nickel (1980).

As modern coins made of non-precious metal, they are worth essentially face value unless fully uncirculated. A collector might pay a few US dollars for an uncirculated specimen.

The Standard Catalog of World coins shows a slight increase in collector pricing as the dates get older. For instance, between 1960 and 1964, coins in well preserved condition catalog for about one-half US dollar.
