Israel 1976 Silver Proof Pidyon Haben. Come in original government issue case and COA. The seventh in the series of Pidyon Haben coins was issued in 5736-1976. The design on both sides differs from that appearing on Pidyon Haben coins in previous years. Pidyon Haben is the redemption of a firstborn son from his special dedication to the service of G-d. The Pidyon Haben ceremony takes place on the 31st day after birth, when the firstborn son is redeemed by a Cohen (priest) for 5 Shekels of silver, originally a total weight of 96.15 grams of silver. Today, it is customary to give the Cohen 100 grams of silver or pay him the current value of 100 grams of silver.
