| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a dramatic figural composition depicting the biblical scene of Joseph revealing himself to his brothers (Genesis 45:1–15). Joseph is shown in profile facing left, dressed in Egyptian regalia including a pectoral collar and headdress, his right hand raised in a gesture of address. To his left, a multitude of outstretched imploring hands and the faces of his brothers crowd the left field, rendered in a stylized, bas-relief manner against a deeply mirrored proof field. The contrast between the polished background and the frosted sculptural relief creates a strong visual effect emphasizing the emotional intensity of the reunion. No inscriptions or legends appear on the reverse. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This piece is part of Israel's long-running Biblical Art series, which the Bank of Israel has issued since the 1990s to mark Jewish holidays — in this case, the Jubilee year 2000. The Josef narrative, drawn from Genesis, held particular resonance for a state built substantially by diaspora return; the story of exile, preservation of identity, and eventual reunion with family carried obvious contemporary weight without needing to be stated explicitly by the issuing authority.
