Israel - 1 Pruta with pearl 1949 - PCGS SP 65 - Very high rating, mintage only 25,000 units, but according to the grading company, there are only 28 units that have been graded, as the remaining coins have been put into circulation and it is no longer possible to distinguish them from this type of coin. The King’s Norton Mint in Birmingham, England, was one of the most important private mints operating during the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. The mint produced coins, medals, and tokens for British colonies and many other nations around the world, and was renowned for its high striking quality and exceptional precision. The coins struck in Proof finish were made in very limited quantities, usually for internal testing, presentation, or official display. These coins feature brilliant, sharp, and highly detailed surfaces, and are considered extremely rare today due to their exceptional quality and historical significance. After the mint’s closure, the remaining coins - including several Israeli issues - were sent to the PCGS grading company for preservation and authentication, since once such coins show wear, it becomes impossible to identify their origin or distinguish them from regular circulation strikes. According to PCGS data, only a few dozen examples of each type have survived, making them exceptionally rare and highly sought after in the world of numismatics. The Israeli government has asked the Numismatic Association in Israel for design proposals for a new series of currencies. Leo Kadman and Hanan Pavel, along with graphic artist Uta Wallisch, submitted charts, which were approved by then-Finance Minister Eliezer Kaplan.
