| Obverse description | Central field displays a stylized bouquet of narcissus (roe) flowers with stems and blossoms rising from lower left to upper right. To the right, the large numeral '1' dominates the upper field, below which appears the denomination legend in Hebrew (שקל חדש) and Latin (NEW SHEQEL). The State of Israel emblem — a menorah flanked by olive branches within a dotted border — appears at the middle right. The issuer's name is inscribed along the lower rim in three scripts: Hebrew (ישראל) at lower right, Arabic (اسرائيل) continuing along the base, and ISRAEL in Latin letters at the bottom. |

| Reverse description | Central design features a boldly rendered roe deer (gazelle) in full profile, depicted in a leaping or standing pose above a textured ground of stylized vegetation or grain sheaves. The surrounding legend, inscribed along the upper rim, reads in Latin 'LIKE TO A ROE (SONG OF SONGS: 8:17)' and in Hebrew at the upper left gives the Hebrew date תשנ״ג (5753/1993). Along the lower rim, a Hebrew biblical quotation is inscribed: וְדָמֵה-לְךָ לִצְבִי, referencing the Song of Songs. Additional Hebrew text in parentheses appears at the left, identifying the scriptural source. |
