| Reverse description | Central field depicts a stylized early American Hanukkah lamp (chanukiah) shown in three-quarter perspective, rendered with clean geometric lines typical of official Israeli commemorative coinage. The lamp features a row of oil fonts characteristic of early American Jewish ceremonial objects. The inscription 'EARLY AMERICAN HANUKKAH LAMP' curves along the upper periphery in Latin script, while the Hebrew legend 'חנוקיה קדומה מאה״ב' appears along the lower periphery. The design is set within the dodecagonal flan with a plain inner field surrounding the central motif. |
