| Reverse description | The reverse features a central circular shield bearing the Hebrew inscription "Masada shall not fall again" in bold, tower-like raised lettering arranged to evoke a fortress. Surrounding the shield, the English legend "MASADA SHALL NOT FALL AGAIN" arcs around the inner border. The outer rim is decorated with a continuous frieze of stylized figures in relief, depicting armed soldiers alternating with workers engaged in the excavation and restoration of Masada. |
