  • 50 Mils (The Solid Coin): A solid, circular coin replica featuring the denomination "Fifty Mils" in three languages. In its original form, it was minted in 720 fine silver.

  • Historical Accuracy: The face clearly shows "Fifty Mils" in the 3 languages, and the back features the trilingual name "Palestine" and the symbolic olive branch, a traditional symbol of peace and the Palestinian land. While these replicas feature a vintage antique finish, the original coins circulated during the British Mandate were often minted in silver.

  • Vintage Finish: The coins have an "antiqued" oxidation to give them a vintage look and highlight the raised lettering.

  • Accents: Paired with vibrant beads in various colours.

This item is directly sourced from the Old City of Jerusalem - Palestine, ensuring your purchase supports local craftsmanship.

  • Keep Dry: Remove earrings before swimming, showering, or exercising to protect the antiqued finish.

  • Apply Products First: Let perfumes and lotions dry completely before wearing your jewelry.

  • Cleaning: Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use chemical cleaners, as they will remove the dark "antique" detailing.

  • Storage: Store in a dry place or an airtight bag to prevent natural tarnishing.
