<p>[QUOTE="hontonai, post: 516098, member: 4703"]Correct.No, it's 740 - meaning 5740. Krause gives the date of KM#100 as 1980, but Hebrew Year 5740 actually extended from September 22, 1979 through September 10, 1980 on the Western calendar, so 1979 is also appropriate.It's the other way around. Hebrew consonants, have secondary meanings as numbers.Yup.</p><p><br /></p><p>BTW the coin is a 1/2 Lira commemorating the 25th anniversary of the Bank of Israel, and was only issued in 35,000 sets.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
