Surrounding inscriptions in Hebrew read '100 לירות' (100 Lirot) at the top and 'כה שנים למדינת ישראל' (25 Years to the State of Israel) in large bold Hebrew characters below the shield, accompanied by the date '1973' in both Western numerals and the Hebrew year תשל״ג. The Arabic legend '25 سنة لإسرائيل' (25 Years for Israel) appears at the bottom of the field. The circumferential legend in Latin reads 'ISRAEL'S 25TH ANNIVERSARY', running along the left and right rims respectively.

A pendant seal with the Star of David hangs from the lower left of the scroll. Below the scroll, a four-line Hebrew inscription reads 'אנו מכריזים בזאת על הקמת מדינה יהודית בארץ ישראל היא מדינת ישראל' (We hereby proclaim the establishment of a Jewish state in the Land of Israel — the State of Israel), taken directly from the Declaration. A small mint mark appears at the lower center of the field.
