| Reverse description | A large stylized letter Mem (מ), representing the Hebrew word for coin (מטבע) and evoking the twin tablets of the Law, dominates the upper field. Flanking the base of the Mem on either side are small diamond-shaped ornaments. Below, in bold angular Hebrew lettering, the biblical verse כל בכור בניך תפדה (All the firstborn of thy sons thou shalt redeem; Exodus 34:20) occupies the center of the field. Along the lower rim, the legend מטבע פדיון הבן (Pidyon Haben coin — Redemption of the Firstborn coin) is inscribed in smaller Hebrew characters, identifying the commemorative purpose of the issue. |
