| Reverse description | A detailed portrait of S.Y. Agnon occupies the central field, depicted in a contemplative, introspective pose evoking literary thought, rendered in fine relief. The portrait is shown in three-quarter profile, capturing the writer's distinctive features with artistic sensitivity. A circular border legend in Hebrew reads 'ש״י עגנון - פרס נובל לספרות' and in English 'S. Y. AGNON - NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE 1966', commemorating his receipt of the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1966. The overall design reflects a refined commemorative aesthetic befitting the laureate's cultural stature. |
