| Obverse description | A landscape vignette of Upper Galilee occupies the central field, rendered in a fine intaglio style with characteristic rolling hills and rural scenery. The denomination and issuing authority appear in Hebrew script, with the value inscription reading 'One Israeli Pound' and 'Bank of Israel' positioned within the design. Guilloche underprint work frames the central vignette, with the denomination numeral also appearing on the note. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents an abstract geometric design as its central motif, executed with fine line-work and guilloche patterning. The issuing authority and denomination inscriptions appear in both Arabic and English, reading 'Bank of Israel' and 'One Israeli Pound' respectively. The overall composition balances the abstract vignette with structured border elements typical of mid-twentieth century banknote design. |
