Reverse description The reverse is dominated by the bold numeral '1' in the upper field, accompanied by the Hebrew inscription denoting 'one Israeli Lira' set across the central zone. A small ornamental device adapted from an ancient Judaean bronze prutah of Alexander Jannaeus (circa 103 B.C.) — consisting of a central motif flanked by a pair of small stars — occupies the mid-field. Below this device, the Hebrew calendar date corresponding to the Gregorian year of issue is inscribed, varying across the series from 5727 (1967) through 5740 (1980). The reverse composition is typographically precise, with the denomination and inscription arranged to balance the field effectively.
