Jesse presented his sons to Samuel, but none of them were desirable before God. Finally, Jesse brings his little son, a shepherd, a ruddy young man, with beautiful eyes and good eyesight, and God says to Samuel: ”Get up from his anointing, for this is he” (Samuel 1:16, 12). From that day on, God's spirit was removed from Saul and transferred to David and in its place, an evil spirit possessed Saul. In order to calm him down, Saul's servants suggested looking for a man who could play the violin, and thus David ben Yishai the Shepherd, who had not yet been anointed king by the prophet, was suggested. ”And David took the violin and played with his hand, and it was good for Saul, and it was good for him, and the evil spirit departed from him” (1 Samuel 16:23). In the design of the coin, the figure of King Shaul is shown, in outlines that hint at his expected disappearance from power, sitting on the throne and the crown of the kingdom has been detached from his head. Before him, David, the young shepherd who will rule over the people after being secretly anointed king, is depicted as a simple boy playing Saul. obverse: The image of David the shepherd, playing the violin before King Saul.
