| Obverse description | The obverse features the State of Israel emblem — a menorah flanked by olive branches above a shield — prominently positioned in the upper field. The central field bears the name of Baron Edmond de Rothschild in large Hebrew characters (הברון אדמונד דה רוטשילד), with the Hebrew year range התר"ה–התרצ"ה and his birth and death years 1845–1934 inscribed below in Latin script. The denomination '2 שקלים' (2 Sheqalim) appears at the bottom of the central field alongside the Arabic legend 'اسرائيل' and the Hebrew mint mark. A continuous circular legend in Hebrew, Latin, and Arabic reads around the periphery, commemorating the centenary of his first settlement activities in Eretz Israel, with 'ISRAEL 1982' and 'CENTENARY OF HIS FIRST SETTLEMENT ACTIVITIES IN ERETZ ISRAEL' completing the border inscription. |
