Reverse description The reverse depicts a stylized archaeological scene evoking the ancient Roman port city of Caesarea Maritima. In the central field, a partially ruined stone wall with large ashlar blocks rises prominently, backed by the remnants of a fortified battlement stretching across the horizon. In the foreground, scattered column drums and a carved architectural capital bearing a menorah motif lie among wave-like forms suggesting the Mediterranean shoreline. The Hebrew legend 'קיסריה' arcs across the upper left field, with the Latin legend 'CAESAREA' inscribed in bold capitals along the lower left field.
