Reverse description The reverse commemorates the 20th anniversary of the unification of Jerusalem, with the large numeral '20' forming a compositional arc across the field. Within the curve of the '2', an open book is depicted in relief, symbolising learning and tradition. The circle of the '0' frames a detailed view of one of Jerusalem's historic city gates, rendered with fine stonework detail evoking the Old City walls. The English legend '20 YEARS UNITED JERUSALEM' is inscribed at the upper right of the field, while the Hebrew equivalent '20 שנה לאיחוד ירושלים' appears at the lower centre.
