Israel's annual Hanukkah coin series, launched in 1958, was designed from the outset as an educational program as much as a numismatic one — each year's issue highlighting a different diaspora lamp tradition, with the 1977 entry drawing from the collection of the Israel Museum. The three KM variants (91.1, 91.2, 91.3) reflect differing edge treatments produced for circulation, proof, and a third specification, a cataloging distinction that trips up collectors more often than the coins themselves warrant.
