| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed scene depicting the patriarch Abraham at the entrance to his tent at Mamre, extending a welcoming gesture toward three angelic visitors, as recounted in Genesis 18. Abraham is shown in a posture of gracious hospitality, while Sarah, his wife, is depicted modestly observing from within the tent opening in the background. The composition is rendered in a detailed pictorial style characteristic of Israeli commemorative issues, with the figures occupying the full field of this small-format gold coin. The overall design conveys the narrative of divine visitation and the biblical promise of Isaac's birth. |
