Additional information

Issued to mark the year 2000 — a date carrying obvious awkwardness for a Jewish state whose own calendar read 5760 — the Bank of Israel's millennium series navigated that tension by framing the issue around universal themes rather than a Christian chronological milestone. The series attracted significant collector interest abroad, particularly in the United States, where diaspora demand reliably supports Israeli commemorative programs.
