The Israeli currency or the amount you should give for machatzit hashekel (some people give three times that)? They announced in my shul before the megillah that a biblical half shekel was worth about 25 of today's shekels due to the price of silver (up from last year) but I didn't check the math.

And the dollar exchange rate is 3.4620 sh
So 25sh is 25/3.4620 = 7.22 $
so 3 * 1/2 sh is $21.66

DH said the minhag is to give 1 and a half of the local currency. In Israel it's 1.5 shekal; in the US it's $1.50.
