| Additional information |
Shimon Peres died in September 2016, and this commemorative was authorized as part of Israel's ongoing series honoring former heads of state — Peres having served both as Prime Minister and, from 2007 to 2014, as President. The Bank of Israel has issued gold commemoratives in this weight class intermittently since the 1990s, typically tied to anniversaries or state occasions rather than immediate posthumous issuance, which explains the seven-year gap between his death and this coin's appearance.
