[QUOTE="dadams, post: 3848702, member: 82194"]I like the Captive and Arms issues as well as the other Judaea Capta's in the series and have yet still to acquire one . . . so many coins, so few funds! I do have a second year Jewish War prutah which is often referred to as the "Masada Coin" since many of them were found there at the fortress.
