Reverse description The reverse features a central shield-shaped device bearing the Hebrew inscription in bold, architectural lettering styled to resemble fortress towers. Surrounding the shield, the legend 'MASADA SHALL NOT FALL AGAIN' arcs in the middle field. The entire rim is encircled by a continuous frieze in relief depicting human figures representing armed soldiers and excavation workers, evoking both the ancient defenders and the modern restoration of Masada.
