| Reverse description | The central field features a circular shield bearing the Hebrew inscription 'Masada shall not fall again' rendered in stylized tower-like lettering evocative of fortress battlements. Surrounding the shield, the English legend 'MASADA SHALL NOT FALL AGAIN' arcs around the inner field. The broad outer band is decorated with a continuous frieze in low relief depicting figures of armed soldiers alternating with excavation and restoration workers, referencing both the ancient defenders and modern archaeological efforts at Masada. |
