| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed skyline composition of Old Akko (Acre), featuring the ancient Crusader-era fortification walls prominently in the foreground. The famous Khan el-Umdan caravanserai with its distinctive Ottoman clock tower — erected to commemorate the 25th year of the reign of Sultan Abdul Hamid II — occupies a central position in the design. The subterranean Crusader Knights' Hall, the White Mosque with its minaret, and other historic architectural elements of the Old City skyline are rendered in fine relief across the field. The trilingual legend 'OLD AKKO / عكا القديمة / עכו העתיקה' appears in Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew scripts, identifying the UNESCO World Heritage Site depicted. |
