| Obverse description | At centre, a stylised date palm occupies the right portion of the field, with the face value '2 NEW SHEQALIM' inscribed in Hebrew and English to its left. The State Emblem of Israel (menorah flanked by olive branches) appears in the upper left of the field. The trilingual legend 'ISRAEL' in Hebrew, Arabic, and English runs along the upper border. Along the lower border, a biblical quotation from Song of Songs 7:7 — 'thy stature is like to a palm tree' — is rendered in both Hebrew and English. On Proof strikes, the Hebrew letter Mem (מ) appears as a privy mark. |
