| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination is expressed in four registers across the central field, stacked vertically, presenting the value in each of the territory's three official languages and scripts. At the top, the numeral ٥٠ in Eastern Arabic-Indic script is accompanied by the Arabic legend خمسون مل (Fifty Mils); below, the English legend FIFTY MILS appears in bold incuse Roman capitals; beneath that, the Hebrew חמשים מיל is inscribed in a clear serif style; and at the base, the Western numeral 50 is rendered in large, bold characters. The field is plain with no additional ornament, and a dentilated border encircles the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Palestine pound and its subsidiary coinage were introduced in 1927 following the establishment of the Palestine Currency Board in London, which operated entirely outside the local banking system — a deliberate colonial arrangement ensuring the currency remained pegged to sterling and controlled from Britain. The Currency Board never set foot in Palestine; notes and coins were ordered, struck at the Royal Mint, and shipped in.
Production ceased after 1942 as wartime silver demands and the accelerating collapse of British administrative authority made further issues impractical. Coins from the final years of the series circulated hard through the 1948 war and are routinely found well worn.
