Additional information

Part of the long-running Judaic Art series launched by the Bank of Israel in 1985, this issue draws on a program that has consistently paired legal-tender silver coins with ceremonial Jewish objects and traditions. The Sabbath candlesticks subject reflects a domestic ritual practice rather than a state or biblical theme — an unusual choice for sovereign coinage that speaks to the series' deliberate emphasis on everyday religious life over monumental iconography.
