| Obverse description | The obverse presents three stylized pomegranate fruits arranged symmetrically in the central field, a motif drawn from ancient Israelite iconography. Below the pomegranates, the State of Israel emblem — a seven-branched menorah flanked by two olive branches — is rendered in low relief. A tripartite legend encircles the design, with the Hebrew inscription at the top, the Arabic transliteration along the lower arc, and the Latin legend positioned between them, each rendering the word 'Israel' in its respective script. The overall design is clean and modernist in character, with the inscriptions forming a near-complete border around the central devices. |
