Reverse description The reverse depicts an abstract composition commemorating Israel's National Water Carrier, featuring a tall stylized figure formed by sweeping curved lines suggestive of flowing water, flanked on the lower left by a series of receding rectangular conduit cross-sections representing pipeline infrastructure, and on the lower right by stylized aquatic vegetation or lotus leaves in relief. The legend 'NATIONAL WATER SYSTEM' arcs along the upper periphery in Latin script, with the Hebrew inscription 'מפעל המים הלאומי' to the right field and the Arabic equivalent 'نظام المياه الوطني' in the lower left field. The overall design is executed in a bold modernist style with contrasting prooflike and frosted surfaces.
