* The 'Mem' Proof mint mark on the obverse of this coin is most probably the result of an error. All 1/2 NIS coins with a Hanukka Lamp on their obverse, minted since 1993/5754 have no obverse mint mark. The obverse design of this 'Polish Lamp' 1/2 NIS coin was copied from the 'Polish' Lamp' commemorative 1 Sheqel Proof coin issued in 1981/5752, but without obliterating the 'Mem' Proof mint mark. As none of the 1993+ Hanukka coins in sets are Proof issues, but Uncirculated coins only, the 'Mem' Proof mint mark is misplaced and must therefore originate from an oversight by the Dutch Mint, the Bank of Israel and the Israel Government Coins and Medals Corporation.
