<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jlblonde, post: 1414873, member: 32000&quot;]Well it is a mint error that has somewhat become a variety. It depends on how you look at it. The two types, if you will, coexist and were circulated at the same time. This would indicate that since the error is so slight and the Israeli Mint decided it was ok to circulate the coin then it has gone from mint error to a variety type. There are two years that I know of, 1987 and 1988 for the 1, 5 &amp; 10 Agorot in this series. As far as I know there are no later dates that have this. It being &quot;Rare&quot; is by opinion only, but there are many Israeli coin errors. Most have not become varieties.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s a link to some: <a href="http://israelerrorcoins.tripod.com/misc/index.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://israelerrorcoins.tripod.com/misc/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://israelerrorcoins.tripod.com/misc/index.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I enjoy collecting Israeli coins and have nearly all the coins in this series including the error/variety types. I simply call it an error, but you may choose otherwise.</p><p><br /></p><p>Joe[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
