I think mine has a pearl, but it's bigger and much closer than the one on the picture. What do you think?

I think it's just some extra alloy as next to the border as well....

Yeah, maybe. But it's round.

Here's a zoom in:


Since I just have my final exam to study to, I thought I's just waste some time in painting too. I mean, I'm fine if it's just some extra alloy, I just want to be 107% sure. :O




Cheers mate!

It's tricky. It does seems round indeed but usually pearls on Israeli coins are not weak strike like it looks in the picture. I think it is a pearl though but a strange one.

​I know, right? That's exactly why I think it is a pearl, ad the same time I don't think it is, but it kinda have to be. :P
