| Additional information |
Piedforts — coins struck on planchets of double or greater thickness — have a long French minting tradition, but Israel's adoption of the format for commemorative issues in the 1980s was relatively unconventional for a young central bank. This 1988 issue marks the fortieth anniversary of Israeli independence, declared on 14 May 1948 as the British Mandate expired.
The KM#PA41 designation places it firmly in pattern and special strike territory rather than circulation issue.
