The field features a dark, matte-finished background contrasting with the polished raised relief of the tower. The surrounding legend reads THE TOWER OF BABEL IN THE LAND OF SHINAR along the outer border. |

| Reverse lettering | 8 And they said. Go to, let us build us a city, and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven. So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth. Therefore is the name of it called Babel: because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth. GENESIS 11:4.8.9 |
