Obverse description Against a matte dark field, the large numeral '1' is prominently displayed in the upper right, below which the denomination appears in three scripts: Hebrew (שקל חדש), Latin (NEW SHEQEL), and Arabic (اسرائيل). The Hebrew year התשנ״ה and Gregorian year 1995 are inscribed centrally, with the issuer name rendered in Hebrew (ישראל), Latin (ISRAEL), and Arabic (اسראיל) below. The State of Israel coat of arms — a menorah flanked by olive branches on a shield — appears to the left of the numeral. A circular commemorative legend in Hebrew and Latin reads, along the border: 'FIFTY YEARS SINCE THE VICTORY OVER NAZI GERMANY · MAY 1945', with the corresponding Hebrew inscription along the upper arc.

Reverse description The reverse features a bold compositional design in which the flags of the USSR, the United States, and the United Kingdom are arranged within a triangular form, superimposed over the six-pointed Star of David. The flags of the three Allied powers are rendered in relief detail, commemorating their joint victory over Nazi Germany. A Hebrew and Latin legend encircles the design, reading 'IN MEMORY OF JEWISH FIGHTERS'. The overall composition is set against a polished proof field, with the Star of David serving as the central unifying motif linking the Allied victory to the Jewish experience of World War II.
