Additional information

Issued by the Netherlands in 1997 to mark the second anniversary of Rabin's assassination — November 4, 1995, when he was shot by Yigal Amir following a peace rally in Tel Aviv's Kings of Israel Square. The Dutch connection is not incidental: the Netherlands had maintained unusually close diplomatic and cultural ties with Israel since the founding of the state, rooted partly in the country's wartime history and the significant role Dutch Jews played in early Zionist settlement.

Cataloged under the X# prefix, indicating a non-circulating commemorative outside standard national coinage, struck at Utrecht.
