Israel Numismatic Society

The Israel Numismatic Society (INS) was founded in Tel Aviv on May 10, 1945. In 1956 the INS approved a charter, which laid out the objectives and functioning of the society until recently. Since then three branches, in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and Haifa, grew up and have conducted regular monthly meetings. A journal on behalf of the INS, the Israel Numismatic Journal, was published, beginning in 1962. The Israel Numismatic Society also decided on the regular publication of a scientific journal, the Israel Numismatic Research (the first volume was published in February 2007).
