Bar Kochba Revolt, middle bronze struck year 132-133 C.E. (1st year of the revolt) in Jerusalem (GBC 1377 - Mild. 23) 10.35 g.
A nice coin perfectly centered on both sides with complete, clear inscriptions. Note the retrograde letter lamed at top right of the lyre (the retrograde letters are rare on the Bar Kochba dies). Much better than the 2 specimens offered at the famous Heritage-Shoshana sale, 3 years ago (#20238 & 20239).
Est.: 2,000-2,200
