Issued to mark the centenary of Einstein's 1905 "Annus Mirabilis," the year he published four papers that reshaped physics — special relativity, the photoelectric effect, Brownian motion, and mass-energy equivalence. Einstein himself had a documented connection to the Israeli state: he was offered the presidency in 1952 following Chaim Weizmann's death, and declined. The Bank of Israel's commemorative program has a long habit of claiming that association.
