Correct attribution for Judah Aristobulus I prutah
« on: March 07, 2013, 09:00:37 pm »
I'm trying to put some coins together for a Judean gallery and I'm looking for the correct Hendin number for this prutah. I believe it's 1142 but, if that's what I think, then it's probably 1142.  :P  I just can't get the hang of this script!

I think it is a Hendin 1143.  The Hendin 1142 has wide block-like letters much like on the Hendin 1135, and is very rare.

Thanks Aarmale.  Just a correction from my first post, I meant to say, "I believe it's 1142 but, if that's what I think, then it's probably 1143." So, in a way, I was right!

I see what you mean with the script, thanks a lot.
