1 oz „Walls of Jerusalem” Silver Coin

The 1 oz Walls of Jerusalem Silver Coin from The Holy Land Mint combines fine silver with one of Jerusalem's most distinctive historic landmarks. Issued as the third release in the "Views of Jerusalem" series, the coin celebrates the monumental walls surrounding Jerusalem's Old City.

The walls that shape the Old City today were constructed in the 16th century under the Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. Extending for approximately four kilometres around the historic centre, the fortifications are distinguished by numerous watchtowers and eight city gates that have become an integral part of Jerusalem's unique architectural character.

Among the best-known entrances are Jaffa Gate, Damascus Gate, Zion Gate and Lions Gate. The sealed Golden Gate holds a particularly important place in Jerusalem's religious traditions and adds another fascinating chapter to the history of the ancient fortifications.

The design of the Walls of Jerusalem silver coin captures the distinctive architecture of these historic walls. The Old City fortifications frame the composition, while the inscription "Walls of Jerusalem" in English and Hebrew forms a central element of the design.

The common reverse of the "Views of Jerusalem" series features the Lion of Jerusalem together with prominent landmarks of the city within a stylised coat-of-arms design. The composition is complemented by The Holy Land Mint trademark and details of the coin's weight and fineness.

Struck from 1 oz of .999 fine silver, this issue combines precious metal with an expressive design inspired by the history and architecture of Jerusalem. Its distinctive theme and position as the third release in the "Views of Jerusalem" series make it an appealing addition for collectors of international silver coins and Jerusalem-themed issues.
