| Obverse description | Central device consists of a stylized cluster of grapes with leaves, evoking ancient Judean coinage of the Bar-Kokhba Revolt (132–135 CE). The legend יִשְׂרָאֵל (Israel) appears in Hebrew above the device, and اسرائيل (Israel) in Arabic below, both inscriptions running along the inner rim. The field is plain, with no exergue line, lending the design an archaic, emblematic character consistent with the historicist aesthetic of Israel's first coinage series. |
