A Judean Judaea Capta
« on: November 07, 2019, 02:42:06 am »
I don't know why it took me so long to acquire an example of this most interesting type - a bronze coin celebrating the Roman victory in the Jewish War struck in the very region the conflict took place. Talk about a coin steeped in history!  https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?pos=-158483

Of historical note: This coin likely was minted around the time of the siege of Masada in 73.
