| Obverse description | Bimetallic coin featuring, within the aureate centre, a decorative motif of two palm trees laden with fruit rising from woven baskets, adapted from an ancient Jewish coin design symbolising the redemption of Zion. A fine beaded border separates the centre from the outer nickel-plated steel ring. The State of Israel emblem — a menorah flanked by olive branches — appears at the left of the ring, accompanied by the Hebrew legend 'לגאלת ציון' (For the Redemption of Zion) inscribed in ancient Hebrew script around the ring. The outer ring displays a vertically striated background pattern. |

| Reverse description | The aureate centre displays the large numeral '10' in the upper portion of the field, below which appear three lines of denomination inscriptions: 'שקלים חדשים' in Hebrew, 'NEW SHEQALIM' in Latin, and '١٠ شيقل جديد' in Arabic. A menorah motif above the inscription 'חנוכה / HANUKKA' occupies the lower centre, commemorating the Hanukkah festival. The outer nickel-plated steel ring bears the trilingual country name 'ישראל • ISRAEL • إسرائيل' around the upper arc, with a grape cluster ornament at the left and the Hebrew year date at the lower arc, all against a vertically striated background. |
