| Obverse lettering | 5 התשמ`ה 1985 בנק ישראל חמשה שקלים חדשים 26.2.1969 לוי אשכול ראש הממשלה ד` בתמוז תשכ`ג 26.6.1963 - ח` באדר תשכ`ט (Translation: Bank of Israel Five New Sheqalim (Along Right Edge) Levi Eshkol Prime Minister From 4 Tamuz 5723, June 26 1963 to 8 Adar 5728, February 26 1969) |
| Reverse description | The reverse carries an allegorical vignette illustrating the National Water Carrier of Israel: large-diameter coupled water pipes extend across the composition, with flowing water channeled toward cultivated green fields that give way sharply to arid, barren wasteland, evoking the transformative agricultural legacy of Eshkol's tenure. The denomination '5 New Sheqalim' and the issuer name 'Bank of Israel' are rendered in both Arabic ('٥ شيكل جديد' / 'بنك إسرائيل') and English. A guilloche underprint fills the background field. |
