| Obverse description | At center, a faithful replica of an ancient Judaean bronze coin struck during the fourth year of the Jewish revolt against Rome (69-70 CE), featuring a lulav (palm branch) flanked by two etrogim (citron fruits). Below the central motif, the State of Israel emblem — a menorah flanked by olive branches — appears in the field. Surrounding legends identify the issuing state in three scripts: Hebrew (ישראל), Arabic (اسرائيل), and English (ISRAEL), with the Hebrew inscription שנת ארבע ('Year Four') also present, referencing the ancient prototype. |
