Beschrijving voorzijde The obverse presents a stylized lion passant in profile facing left, rendered in a bold, archaic decorative style reminiscent of ancient Near Eastern art, occupying the central field. The animal's mane is elaborately detailed with geometric patterning, and its tail curves upward toward the upper right. The State of Israel coat of arms — featuring a menorah flanked by olive branches above a shield inscribed in Hebrew — appears in the upper left field. Along the lower rim, a trilingual legend reads in Latin, Hebrew, and Arabic: ISRAEL / ישראל / إسرائيل.

Aanvullende informatie

The Hurva Synagogue in Jerusalem's Jewish Quarter was destroyed twice — first by Bedouin creditors in 1721 when the Ashkenazi community defaulted on construction loans, and again by Jordanian forces in 1948 during the fall of the Old City. It stood as a ruin for decades before a reconstruction effort finally completed the dome in 2010, making this 2014 issue among the first gold commemoratives to feature the restored building.

Struck in one troy ounce of .9999 fine gold, this belongs to Bank of Israel's ongoing series commemorating Jerusalem landmarks — a program with consistently low mintages that rarely exceed a few hundred pieces per issue.
