신 이스라엘 셰켈 (히브리어: שקל חדש 셰켈 하다시) (기호: ₪; ISO 4217 코드: ILS) (also spelled unofficially shekel; pl. sheqalim or unofficially shkalim - שקלים ,Arabic: شيقل جديد, shiqel jadid or شيكل جديد shikel jadid) 는 이스라엘의 통화이다. 1 신 이스라엘 셰켈은 100 아고로트 (אגורות) (단수형 아고라, 히브리어: אגורה)로 나뉜다.

역사

신 이스라엘 셰켈은 1,000 구 셰칼림 = 1 신 셰켈의 비율로 1986년 1월 1일에 이스라엘 셰켈을 대체하였다.

Since January 1, 2003, the ILS has been a freely convertible currency. Since May 7, 2006 sheqel derivative trading has also been available on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. This makes the sheqel one of only twenty or so world currencies for which there are widely-available currency futures contracts in the foreign exchange market. It is also a hard currency, with access available to it in almost any place in the world.

On May 26, 2008, CLS Bank International (CLS Bank) has announced that it will settle payment instructions in Israeli New Shekel, thus making this currency fully convertible.

이스라엘은 조폐국이 없기 때문에, 화폐는 이스라엘에서 제조되지 않는다. 현재, 이스라엘의 동전은 대한민국의 지폐와 동전을 제조하는 한국조폐공사 (KOMSCO)에서 제조된다.

Banknotes

In September 1985, banknotes were introduced in denominations of 1, 5, 10, 20 and 50 ILS. The 1, 5 and 10 ILS notes used the same basic designs as the earlier 1,000, 5,000 and 10,000 shqalim notes but with the denominations altered.

In 1986, 100 ILS notes were introduced, followed by 200 ILS notes in 1991. The 1, 5 and 10 ILS notes were later replaced by coins. A plan to issue a 500 ILS banknote, carrying the portrait of Yitzhak Rabin, was announced shortly after Rabin's assassination in 1995. However, due to low inflation rates, there was no need for such a banknote, and it was never issued. However, in February 2008 the Bank of Israel announced that planning of an entirely new series of banknotes has started, and that the new series to be issued as from 2010, will most probably include a 500 ILS banknote as well. The design of the new banknotes has not yet been determined, but if the 20 ILS polymer banknote of the current series, introduced in April 2008, will be successful, the new series will almost certainly consist of polymer notes only. Possible designs under review are: non-political famous personalities, such as Teddy Kollek (the legendary mayor of Jerusalem), Rabbi Shlomo Goren (IDF chief chaplain during the 1967 Six-Day War, famous for his ram's horn blowing on Jerusalem's Temple Mount minutes after its conquest by Israeli forces), Ilan Ramon (Israel's first astronaut who perished on the Columbia in 2002, together with his seven fellow-astronauts), Naomi Shemer (known as "First Lady of Israeli Song"). Other possible designs include Landscapes of Israel, Flora and Fauna of Israel.

Notes currently in circulation are:

Second Series of the New Sheqel
Value	Dimensions	Colour	Obverse	Reverse
20 ILS	71x 138 mm	Green	Moshe Sharett	Jewish volunteers in World War II; a watchtower, commemorating tower and stockade settlements
50 ILS		Purple	Shmuel Yosef Agnon	Agnon's notebook, pen and glasses, Jerusalem and the Temple Mount
100 ILS		Brown	Yitzhak Ben-Zvi	Peki'in Synagogue
200 ILS		Red	Zalman Shazar	a street in Safed and text from Shazar's essay about Safed

The 20 ILS banknote is the first, as of April 2008, to be made of polypropylene, a polymer substrate, which is superior to the current paper note with a circulation life of a few months only. The polymer note is printed by Orell Fuessli Security Printing of Zürich, Switzerland. 1.8 million of the new banknotes were printed with the writing "60 years to Israel" (in Hebrew), in red ink.

약어

In Hebrew the new sheqel is usually abbreviated ש"ח (pronounced shaḥ). The symbol for the new sheqel, ₪, is a combination of the first Hebrew letters of the words sheqel (ש) and ḥadash (ח). This symbol, however, proved unpopular, and the two-letter abbreviation is far more common in advertisements and on price tags.
