| Obverse lettering | ISRAEL / ישראל / إسرائيل / 1 NEW SHEQEL / KING SOLOMON AND THE QUEEN OF SHEBA / מלך שלמה ומלכת שבא / الملك سليمان وملكة سبأ / 2021 |
| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a richly detailed scene of King Solomon receiving the Queen of Sheba in his royal palace, rendered in high relief with intricate figural composition. Flanking the royal figures are twelve golden lions, which historically adorned the steps leading to Solomon's magnificent throne as described in the First Book of Kings. The scene evokes the opulence and grandeur of Solomon's court, with the architectural setting providing depth and narrative context. The artistic treatment is highly sculptural, evoking the traditions of commemorative medallic art. |
