Reverse description The reverse presents a panoramic scene of the Kidron Valley near Jerusalem, rendered in intricate relief against a frosted field. At center-left stands the Tomb of Zechariah, depicted with its prominent cornice and engaged columns in the classical Ionic order, surmounted by a distinctive pyramidal roof finial. To the right and in the middle distance, the Tomb of Absalom (Yad Avshalom) is visible, along with additional ancient funerary monuments and a tree. In the upper right background, the crenellated walls of the Old City of Jerusalem are rendered in low relief. The Hebrew legend 'נחל קדרון' curves along the upper border, while 'VALLEY OF KIDRON' in stylized Latin lettering arcs along the lower border.
