If you know Hebrew (or can answer the question below), please help.

HBR (council) abbreviates what Hebrew word (with the vowels)?

Happy Hanukkah!

Thanks,
Joe

Usually it is vocalized as ḥever (or SBL ḥeḇer, etc.). In Hebrew, it has the vowels חֶבֶר.


Attached is the entry from Clines' dictionary.

From right to left: Chet Bet Resh = Chaber = Council. Regularly found in legends of Hasmonean coins.

Best regards

Hey Joe, that really looks great! 

Here is another example of Hendin 1152 that Aarmale helped me with a while back. This one shows both sides (although off center) in case you want to use it.

Great page. Le me know if you have any specific requests.

At any rate, I will add more as they come.

Please only add examples if they are especially clear and vary from the examples listed. If the page gets much bigger it will be load too slow. We might have to make more pages.

I have again updated the page. Although it may look like I just copied the posts on this board, I have about 80 hours of work into that page. I hope it is useful.

Hebrew speakers and Judean coin specialists, please check for errors and make improvements. Every time I look at it I find errors and things to improve. Thanks!
