| Reverse description | The reverse features a stylized seven-branched Menorah rendered in bold, modernist form, set within a recessed trapezoidal frame with rounded corners. The incuse trapezoid creates a striking visual contrast between the raised Menorah motif and the surrounding field. The design reflects the influence of mid-20th century graphic art and serves as a powerful national symbol, the Menorah being the official emblem of the State of Israel. The overall treatment is clean and monumental, with no additional lettering on the reverse face itself. |
