The obverse of the 10 Lirot (Bank of Israel series I) banknote is dedicated to the Jezreel Valley. Fertile soil and a favorable year-round climate make the Jezreel Valley extremely suitable for a variety of agricultural activities. From whatever vantage point one looks - Mount Carmel, the Lower Galilee near Nazareth, or the Samaria mountain range - the entire Jezreel Valley landscape unfolding below is dominated by large cultivated fields, lined with cypress trees. The village depicted on the banknote is Kfar Yehezkel, a cooperative settlement founded in 1921, between Afula and Beit Shean.
Next to the Jezreel Valley landscape on the banknote's obverse is s a rendition of tulips (Tulipa).
The reverse is abstractly designed.
