| Reverse description | Plain brass field bearing two lines of bold Hebrew script centred within the field, reading זִכְרוֹן יַעֲקֹב (Zikhron Ya'akov, meaning 'Memorial of Jacob'). The characters are rendered in a large, clear typeface filling the central area of the coin. Below the inscription, a decorative horizontal rule with a central pellet ornament divides the legend from a small fleur-de-lis device at the base. A raised rim encircles the entire design. |
