Reverse: Classical style Kiddush Cup from 19th century Germany from the Netherlands Alster Collection, on the right, the Hebrew mint year 5752, left, the corresponding civil mint year 1991. Above the goblet, in the center, is the Israel State Emblem. Decorative elements adorn the coin around the border.
