Obverse description The obverse features a right-facing bust of Dona Gracia in the field, draped in a head covering with jeweled adornments, set within an ornate Moorish arch. Surrounding her in low relief are key symbols of her legacy: the Ferrara Bible, the walls of Tiberias, palm trees, a sailing ship, and the tughra seal of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. A Hebrew legend arcs along the upper border, with bilingual inscriptions in Hebrew and Latin script reading 'Dona Gracia' and '500 שנה להולדתה' (500 years since her birth) centered within the arch.
