| Reverse description | The reverse presents a striking split-field composition commemorating Israel's 60th anniversary, with the left half rendered in frosted relief and the right half in mirror proof finish. The numeral '60' is rendered as a large stylised figure occupying the left portion of the field, its curves flowing into a decorative dove perched atop the numeral '0', which incorporates a pomegranate crown — traditional symbols of peace and prosperity in Israeli iconography. The dove holds an olive branch in its beak. The peripheral legend in Hebrew at the top reads שישים שנה למדינת ישראל (60 years to the State of Israel), with the Arabic equivalent and the engravers' names ת. דגן ר. נוטלס inscribed along the right arc. The Latin legend ISRAEL'S 60TH ANNIVERSARY appears along the lower border. |
