| Reverse description | The reverse features a relief composition juxtaposing a fragment of an ancient Hebrew scroll — inscribed with text from the War Scroll — occupying the left field, against the architectural forms of the Shrine of the Book at the Israel Museum: its distinctive white dome and the opposing black basalt wall are depicted in the lower portion. Bilingual legends in Hebrew and English referencing the War of the Sons of Light Against the Sons of Darkness appear to the right. |
