Philip was the first Jewish ruler to place his likeness on their coins. Neither of his brothers, Antipas or Archelaus, did so. Because Philip’s territories were largely non-Jewish, it was possible for him to do so without the kind of uproar that almost certainly would have occurred in Jerusalem or other areas more heavily occupied by a Jewish population.

The dating of these coins is subject to debate. Some say that because Herod was appointed Tetrarch of Samaria by Marc Antony in 42BC, that "year 3" would correspond to 40/39BC. Others feel that because Herod was appointed King of Judaea by the Roman Senate in 40BC, that "year three" should then represent 37BC. In all reality, the debate will most likely never be settled conclusively, one way or the other.cmcdon0923Feb 13, 2019

Herod I - 2 prutot (year 3 = either 40BC or 37BC)Hendin-488 / 1171 (02)
2.76 grams
The dating of these coins is subject to debate. Some say that because Herod was appointed Tetrarch of Samaria by Marc Antony in 42BC, that "year 3" would correspond to 40/39BC. Others feel that because Herod was appointed King of Judaea by the Roman Senate in 40BC, that "year three" should then represent 37BC. In all reality, the debate will most likely never be settled conclusively, one way or the other.cmcdon0923Mar 26, 2007

Herod Antipas - full denomination (year 24 = 20 AD)Hendin-509 / 1199
4.96 grams
This coin is somewhat light weight for a full denomination coin (MCP ranges = 6.10 grams to in the 10.5 gram range, with a single listed at 12.56 grams), however there is a piece of metal missing from about K4 - K7 on the lower edge which may account for a good part of the coin's light weight. This specimen is listed on MCP (ANT-03) at the very bottom of the page as "too poor or too tooled to be identified". I do not believe the coin has been tooled. The coin is almost certainly a match to OBV-3 based on the shape of the two leaves immediately above TI, and the leaves to the immediate right of BE. The reverse's attribution is not certain, although the shape of the branches does somewhat match a damaged/partial coin listed as being from REV-3.cmcdon0923Dec 09, 2006
