About Israeli New Shekel
The Israeli New Shekel (ILS) has been the official currency of Israel since 1986, replacing the old shekel at a rate of 1,000 to 1. The shekel is one of the oldest monetary units in human history, mentioned throughout the Hebrew Bible as a weight of silver. The Bank of Israel manages monetary policy with a free-floating exchange rate. Israel has a highly developed, technology-driven economy - often called the "Start-Up Nation" - with significant exports of software, semiconductors, pharmaceuticals, and diamond cutting and polishing. The new shekel is divided into 100 agorot.
About Bulgarian Lev
The Bulgarian Lev (BGN) is the official currency of Bulgaria, with a history dating to 1880 when it replaced the Turkish piastre after Bulgaria's liberation. The word "lev" means "lion" in Bulgarian. Following a severe financial crisis in 1996-1997, a currency board was established and the lev was pegged first to the Deutsche Mark and then to the Euro at 1.95583 BGN per EUR. Bulgaria is an EU member since 2007 and is working towards adopting the Euro. The Bulgarian National Bank issues the lev, which is divided into 100 stotinki.
