    The Jordan River in Upper Galilee is the main subject on the obverse of the 1 Lira (Bank of Israel series I) banknote. The settlement on the left is Kibbutz Sde Nehemia. The area around the upper reaches of the Jordan have been settled since Biblical times, when it first belonged to the Tribes of Asher and Menashe, and at a later stage to the Tribe of Dan. Since the First Aliya during the 1880s, many new Jewish agricultural settlements were established, utilizing the benefits of an abundant supply of Jordan River water and a near-tropical climate.
    On the banknote's obverse, next to the Upper Galilee landscape, a blossoming anemone (Anemone coronaria) is pictured.
    The reverse shows stylized guilloches.
