Reverse description A naturalistic rendering of a white stork (Ciconia ciconia) standing on one leg in a shallow pool of water, with reeds and aquatic vegetation in the background, occupying the left and central field. To the right, a Hebrew inscription reads 'חסידה ברושים ביתה תהלים קד,יז' ('As for the stork, the fir-trees are her house, Psalms 104:17'). The English equivalent of the biblical citation appears along the upper right border. The mint year '1998' in Gregorian numerals and the Hebrew year 'התשנ"ט' are inscribed at the lower field, reflecting the coin's Jewish calendar date of issue.
