Reverse description The reverse presents the denomination '10 MILS' in large Latin capitals arcing across the upper field above the central hole. To the left, the value is given in Hebrew script (מילים י) and to the lower left in Eastern Arabic-Indic numerals (١٠), while the Arabic denomination (ملات) appears on the right side of the field. Encircling the central perforation is a finely engraved wreath of olive branches, their leaves rendered in precise, naturalistic detail — a hallmark of Percy Metcalfe's craftsmanship. A small lozenge-shaped ornament appears at the base of the design as a stop. The entire composition is enclosed within a milled beaded border consistent with Royal Mint production standards.
