| Reverse description | A large clenched fist rising in relief from the center of the field, grasping a flagpole flying the Israeli flag with Star of David. Two strands of broken barbed wire extend horizontally across the field on either side of the fist, symbolizing liberation and the breaking of barriers. The field is otherwise plain with no legend. |
