Israel – 2 Shekels 1983 – Valor, Israel’s 35th Anniversary of Independence Coin – Silver 850, 28.8g, 37mm
During the War of Independence in 1948, the State of Israel was proclaimed. At the 35th Anniversary of the War, the Bank of Israel issued a commemorative coin dedicated to the Israel Defense Forces. The IDF is the army of the Israeli nation and defends the existence, territorial integrity and sovereignty of the State of Israel.
The IDF was established two weeks after the Proclamation of Independence of the State of Israel.
Its activities include:
1. Defending the existence of the State by taking deterrent action when Israel’s sovereignty or its citizens are threatened by enemy aggression.
2. Defense of the State of Israel against enemy armies in war.
Between 1948 and 1983, the IDF fought the War of Independence, the Sinai Campaign, the Six-Day War, the War of Attrition, the Yom Kippur War and the "Peace for Galilee" War.
3. Ongoing security action to enable the country’s citizens to continue normal and productive daily life.
4. Carrying out national tasks to help in settlement, aliya and absorption, immigrant integration, promotion of national awareness and education, as well as the provision of professional training for youths from underprivileged backgrounds. The IDF is a pioneer in the field of voluntary work in Israel.
Obverse: Emblem of the State of Israel, word "Israel" in Hebrew, English and Arabic, mint year – 1983-5743, Face Value
Reverse: The IDF emblem on a sculpted Star of David, the word "Zahal" in stylized Hebrew letters
