| Obverse lettering | ישראל ISRAEL إسرائيل 10 שקלים חדשים NEW SHEKELS 2020 התש"פ מ רות בשדה בועז RUTH IN BOAZ'S FIELD راعوث في حقل بوعز RUTH 2 |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed figural scene depicting two robed figures facing each other across a low mound, set amid a field of barley rendered in high relief in the lower foreground. The figure on the left, representing Ruth, is veiled and draped in flowing robes, holding a gathered sheaf of grain stalks. The figure on the right, representing Boaz, is bearded and wearing a headcloth, extending a hand offering additional grain stalks toward Ruth. The composition illustrates the biblical narrative of gleaning from the Book of Ruth (Ruth 2), rendered in a stylised, sculptural relief style with smooth, geometric drapery folds characteristic of modern Israeli commemorative coin design. The field is plain and unlettered, with all visual interest concentrated in the central figurative group and the naturalistic barley plants below. |
