| Obverse description | At center, the State of Israel coat of arms depicting a menorah flanked by two olive branches above the Hebrew legend ISRAEL (ישראל). Above the arms, the denomination 50 לירות (50 Lirot) appears in Hebrew. Below the arms, the Hebrew date תשל״ג (1973) and the large Hebrew inscription כ״ה שנים מדינת ישראל (25 Years State of Israel) are arranged in a stylized brick-like pattern. At the bottom, the same phrase appears in Arabic: 25 سنة لاسرائيل. The Latin legend ISRAEL'S 25TH ANNIVERSARY runs along the outer border. |
