Israel - Medal, Hadassah Hospital 1975 - 935 silver, 48 g, 45 mm

Israel – Medal, Hadassah Hospital 1975 – 935 silver, 48 g, 45 mm

The Hadassah University Hospital on Mount Scopus was dedicated in 1939 and rapidly acquired a reputation for being the best equipped in the Middle East. With the increasing attacks on the Jewish community, intending to frustrate the establishment of a Jewish State, access to Mount Scopus became more and more dangerous. In May 1948, it became necessary to evacuate the last of the medical staff from Mount Scopus. Soldiers of "Haganah" were left behind to maintain Jewish sovereignty and to guard the installation. Jerusalem was reunited in June 1967, after the Six Day War. Hadassah leaders raised their ensign on Mount Scopus and declared: ‘This is the banner of a war against ignorance, disease – the banner of peace. On raising it we hereby vow – this hospital shall come back to life again."

In the center of the obverse appears the Hadassah emblem. On both sides the dates "5736-1975". On the rim the legend: "Hadassah University Hospital, Mt. Scopus" in Hebrew and in English.

The new hospital building on Mount Scopus graces the reverse. In the center above the entrance, are the three domes that characterized the old building. On the right appears the verse "Greater the latter glory than the former" (Hagai 2:9), with the English translation near the bottom rim.
