| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely modeled left-facing portrait bust of Israeli songwriter Naomi Shemer, rendered in high relief with expressive detail in her hair and draped clothing. The legend 'אחריך שיריך מפכים להם' in Hebrew curves along the upper rim, translating to 'Your Songs Flow After You', with the corresponding English inscription 'YOUR SONGS FLOW AFTER YOU' arcing along the lower rim. To the left of the portrait, the name 'NAOMI SHEMER' in Latin and 'נעמי שמר' in Hebrew are inscribed vertically alongside the subject's life dates '1930 – 2004'. The overall design conveys a dignified memorial tribute in the classical numismatic portrait tradition. |
