| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized artistic composition evoking Jerusalem, with the commemorative biblical verse from Joel 4:20 — 'But Judah shall dwell for ever, and Jerusalem from generation to generation' — inscribed in English along the outer border and in Hebrew (ויהודה לעולם תשב וירושלם לדור ודור) within the central field. The design reflects a modern artistic style employing abstract forms suggestive of the ancient city's landscape and heritage. The interplay of Hebrew and Latin scripts on the coin's surface underscores the coin's dual commemorative and cultural significance. |
