Obverse description The central field features a five-pointed Star of David composed of five stylized pomegranate blossoms, one at each point of the star, rendered in a decorative floral motif. A Hebrew legend encircles the design along the border, incorporating a scriptural verse from Numbers 18:16 relating to the Pidyon Haben (redemption of the firstborn) ritual. The inscription reads in part: 'Those that are to be redeemed from a month old thou shalt redeem.' The overall design is executed in a restrained, modern artistic style consistent with Israeli commemorative coinage of the period.
