Leo Kadman Pavilion - The Israel Museum

I am currently in Tel Aviv with the family. Took my daughters to the Eretz Israel Museum in Tel Aviv and passed by this very impressive display of the Leo Kadman collection. The exhibit offers an opportunity to travel through time and have a first hand glimpse of the evolution of coinage, manufacture, and art. Unfortunately, I did not have as much time as I needed to do this properly with the girls wanting to leave. I may try again on my own before leaving. There is a virtual tour on the site and this is highly recommended for anyone who visits Israel - Site - The Kadman Numismatic Pavilion
I did take some snapshots on the go - not great imaging using the iPhone, yet gives one a sense of the breadth of the exhibit. Quite a selection.

I could just imagine the groans from the girls when they realized that there were coins in the museum! We've been tricked......daddy found more coins......this might take awhile.
I love the setup of this display:
I saw that exhibit in March when iI was I Israel .
I took pictures too .
It worth seeing the entire exhibit ....plenty of coins and history!
May Hashem keep your family safe.
I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.
BidAsk - appreciate the kind thoughts. We feel very safe here.

P.S : I also recommend for next pleasure station the NMA , with full permanent collections of ancient coins, "The richest collections are those of the ancient coins dated from the 6th century BC to the 5th century AD. These are the coins of the city-states, the kings and rulers of the ancient Greek and Hellenistic world, the Roman Republic, the Roman emperors and the Roman Imperial provinces."

I would have wanted to leave too.
Looks like you've had it your way at the end. Thanks Z.

Marc - a tourist would not sense anything by looking at people conducting their daily routine during this recent crisis. As a people in a tough neighborhood, this is part of the general mindset - live for today and fight for a better tomorrow. We had a wonderful time with family and friends.
