The Story
  • A Second Exodus
  • Between 1950 and 1952, over 120,000 Iraqi Jews were airlifted to Israel in Operation Ezra & Nehemiah, fulfilling the ancient prophecy: "I will bring My people from the east and gather them from the west" (Isaiah 43:5). The Jews of Iraq, descendants of the Babylonian Exile, had waited 2,500 years for this moment.
  • The Journey of Redemption
  • As anti-Semitism rose in Iraq, the Jewish community faced persecution. Israel, still a young nation, rushed to rescue them. In a massive airlift, families left behind homes, businesses, and possessions to return to their biblical homeland.
  • Engraved in History
  • The coin’s design reflects this miraculous return: An El Al airplane in flight, carrying exiles home. A map linking Iraq and Israel, symbolizing the route of return. Psalm 137: “By the rivers of Babylon, we wept when we remembered Zion”, a verse long sung by Jews longing for Jerusalem.
  • The Fulfillment of Prophecy
  • This operation mirrored the return led by Ezra and Nehemiah after the Babylonian captivity. As in biblical times, the exiles left in faith, carrying the dream of rebuilding life in the Land of Israel.
  • Carrying the Legacy Forward
  • This coin is a tribute to aliyah (immigration to Israel) and God’s promise to regather His people. It calls you to: Reflect on Israel’s miraculous ingathering. Support those returning to the Holy Land. Celebrate how biblical prophecy is alive today.
