| Obverse description | The obverse features a central incuse field shaped to evoke the mouth of a cave, within which a high-relief scene depicts two figures on a rope ladder against a backdrop of the Judaean Hills, one figure hauling up a companion at the cave entrance. A two-line Hebrew legend appears above the central field, and the English legend 'EXPEDITION TO THE JUDAEAN DESERT CAVES 1960' is inscribed in the lower field. |
