| Obverse description | The Egoz ship depicted in high relief, tossed amid turbulent waves in the central field. Below the ship, a Hebrew legend reads 'in memory of the 44', with the outline of the Mediterranean coastline showing Morocco and Israel indicated in Hebrew. The upper circumference bears a bilingual legend in Hebrew and French: 'סְפִינַת אֱגוֹז תשכ"א / LE NAVIRE EGOZ 1961'. |

| Reverse description | Two robed Moroccan Jewish figures stand beneath a Moorish arch in the left field, gesturing toward a depiction of Jerusalem's walled city visible in the upper right. In the background, a procession of clandestine immigrants moves along the coastline toward a lighthouse and a small vessel at sea. The circumferential legend appears in Hebrew along the upper arc and in French along the lower arc. |
