| Reverse description | The reverse features a fragment of a Dead Sea scroll with Hebrew text in relief occupying the upper left field, juxtaposed against a stylized architectural rendering of the Shrine of the Book at the Israel Museum in the lower center. A tall vertical slab at right bears bilingual inscriptions in Hebrew and English referencing the War Scroll. The composition contrasts the ancient manuscript with the modern museum structure. |
