A 1927 Penny for your thoughts

History of the place called Palestine

A penny from Mandate Palestine, struck in 1927,when “Palestinian” meant “Jew.”

Arabic, English and Hebrew.

Each script and language shows a variant of the word “Palestine.” By way of compromise, the Hebrew initials for “Eretz Israel” are set in parentheses to the left of “Palestina.”
