| Obverse description | At center, the State Emblem of Israel — a menorah flanked by olive branches — is depicted above a hawthorn branch bearing fruit, the latter symbolizing the biblical apple tree of the Song of Songs. The denominational value '5 NEW SHEQALIM' appears in Hebrew and English, and the word 'ISRAEL' is inscribed in Hebrew, Arabic, and English. A circumferential legend bears the biblical quotation 'AS THE APPLE TREE' with its source 'SONG OF SONGS 2:3' rendered in both Hebrew and English. The design is executed in a refined relief against a polished proof field. |
