The Israel-Egypt Peace Treaty, signed March 26, 1979, was the direct product of the Camp David Accords brokered by Jimmy Carter the previous September — the first peace agreement between Israel and any Arab state. Egypt was subsequently expelled from the Arab League and Cairo's headquarters relocated to Tunis, where it remained until 1989.
Israel's commemorative coinage program of this period was aggressively export-oriented, with most silver issues sold to diaspora collectors abroad rather than circulating domestically. KM#104 is no exception.
