| Obverse description | The obverse features a stylized decorative design composed of pomegranate branches with fruits and blossoms radiating from a central rosette, rendered in an abstract geometric style evoking traditional Jewish ornamental art. The motif is associated with the Pidyon Haben (redemption of the firstborn son) ceremony, with the pomegranate serving as a classic symbol of fertility and Torah commandments. A circular Hebrew legend surrounds the central design along the rim, reading the phrase associated with the Pidyon Haben rite. The overall composition is set within a flat, unadorned field, allowing the decorative central device to dominate the coin's face. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination '25' in large numerals at the top of the field, with 'לירות' (lirot) inscribed immediately below in Hebrew characters. The State of Israel coat of arms — a menorah flanked by two olive branches — occupies the central field. A trilingual circular legend surrounds the design along the lower rim, reading 'ישראל', 'اسرائيل', and 'ISRAEL' in Hebrew, Arabic, and Latin scripts respectively, separated by dots. The Hebrew year תשל״ז and the Gregorian year 1977 appear within the legend. |
