Obverse description Two upright lulav (palm) branches depicted in the center of the field, their fronds spreading symmetrically. A Hebrew inscription encircles the central motif, reading 'שנת ארבע רביע' ('Year Four, Quarter'), distributed around the periphery of the flan. The die-cut is bold and characteristic of the emergency hammered coinage produced during the Jewish revolt against Rome.

(Translation: year four-quarter)
Reverse description A single etrog (citron) fruit depicted centrally in the field, rendered in a stylized yet recognizable form with its characteristic pointed apex and textured surface. A Hebrew inscription surrounds the motif, reading 'לגאלת ציון' ('For the Redemption of Zion'), distributed around the periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The reverse design reflects the deeply religious and nationalistic symbolism of the Great Jewish Revolt coinage.
