ASCII Character ₪
New Sheqel signThe shekel sign (₪) is a currency sign used for the Israeli new shekel, which is the currency of Israel. The symbol was announced officially on 22 September 1985, when the first new shekel banknotes and coins were introduced. The shekel sign, like the dollar sign ("$"), is usually placed left of the number (i.e. "₪12,000" and not "12,000₪"), but since Hebrew is written from right to left, this means that the symbol is actually written after the number.
