Meshorer wrote of the inscriptions on this type, "The letters are clear, large and straight, with few variants. On many coins the inscription, especially the final word is incomplete. Even the specimens that depict incomplete inscriptions and orthographic errors reveal a good style and contain well-defined letters." The Paleo-Hebrew inscription reads, from right to left, as follows: YHW/NTN ( Yehonatan) H (the) K/HN (priest) H (the) GD (high) / (HH)BR (council) H (the) Y/M (Jews). See Reading Judean Coins in NumisWiki.
