Additional information

Israel's late-1990s commemorative program frequently targeted the country's emerging technology sector, and this 1999 issue was struck in the lead-up to the millennium — a moment when Israel's Silicon Wadi was drawing serious international attention as a genuine rival to California's dominance in semiconductors and software. The Bank of Israel used the series partly as soft diplomacy, circulating pieces through numismatic channels abroad to reinforce the country's economic positioning.

KM#326 was struck at the state-contracted facilities handling Israel's collector issues during this period, with mintages kept deliberately low to sustain secondary market interest.
