| Obverse description | The obverse depicts a stylized menorah in the lower right field, from which a rocket launches upward into a starry sky rendered as scattered spherical elements in the field. To the left, a recessed tablet bears the biblical verse in Hebrew and its English translation. Along the right rim, a circular legend in Hebrew and English identifies the subject as the Israel Shavit rocket. |
