| Obverse description | Central device depicts a four-stringed lyre rendered in ancient style, inspired by coinage of the Bar Kokhba Revolt (132–135 CE). The legend 'ישראל' (Israel) appears in Hebrew above and 'اسرائيل' (Israel) in Arabic below, flanking the central motif within the coin's field. The design consciously evokes ancient Judaean numismatic heritage, lending the issue historical and cultural resonance. |
