The band is delimited by two rows of a rope pattern. Under the band there is a dedicatory inscription. The wreath is round and in the shape of five pointed arches. The arches are decorated with the identical reliefed motif: The arched Tablets of the Law surmounted by a coronet and set on a pedestal composed of two volutes flanking an acanthus leaf. An arched garland flanks the Tablets which are set on a conch-like background. Between each couple of arches an acanthus leaf is depicted. A bar is attached to the inner side of the coronet. A dedicatory inscription is engraved in linear letters and reads: מגולת ישראל בג'נובה לבת ציון המשוחררת תשי"ד לפ"ק.
