| Additional information |
Part of the Bank of Israel's "Jewish Values" commemorative series, this piece was issued to mark the millennium year alongside several companion types, each tied to a principle drawn from Jewish ethical tradition. The specific commandment referenced — "Love thy neighbour as thyself" — originates in Leviticus 19:18 and was famously cited by Rabbi Akiva as the Torah's most fundamental precept.
Bronze commemoratives from this series see minimal handling and typically survive in near-original condition.
