    Not an error collector, but definitely an error researcher and "keeper". Found this messed up little rascal, would like to know what error is this. The coin is a 10 Israeli Shekel, the year is 2006.

    As far as I understand, this is a rotated double strike. The metal is raised where it should be raised. The secondary "weak" strike is rotated to the left on one side and to the right on the other.

    Almost all the dots from 12 to 6 o'clock on the right from the palm tree look doubled.

    Any help regarding error/errors on this coin would be appreciated.

    Double struck, in collar. Very cool error... I would kill for a Canadian $2 coin to have the same error...

    Thanks, SPP Ottawa. Is it considered rare? Lets say you got the same looking one on your $2 in same grade, how much premium should it add if an error collector is interested?

    I haven't seen one of these before on 10 NIS, and didn't find examples online. It looks very dramatic compared to other documented 10 NIS errors (rotation, tiny chip of extra metal inside 1 letter).

    Honestly, for coins outside of Canada, US, Australia and UK, I really can't tell you the market value of this piece. I simply don't know...

    I never thought you do, I asked what would be the premium for your Canadian $2 in same condition with same error.

    Just trying to have some idea regarding mine, I can't find any precedents with my coin anywhere. Knowing the situation with other country coin with same error might help a bit.

    Worst case scenario, put it on eBay with a ridiculously high buy-it-now price and allow best offers... see what kind of offers you get and then end the listing.

    I saw one of these struck off-center that went for $160 and change, but the double strike should exceed that.
