<p>[QUOTE=&quot;7Calbrey, post: 4562250, member: 38412&quot;]The coin is worn, but I could detect an ancient umbrella on obverse. It might also be a sort of circular parasol or even a canopy in the form of an umbrella. I learned after searching that it was struck in Judaea during the reign of king Herod Agrippa. The Roman procurator was Pontus Pilate. The obverse reads in Greek AGRIPA with one P. The reverse shows 3 barley&#039; ears. The lower left field reads L C referring to the date of year 6 or 42/43 CE. It weighs 2.07 g. which makes it something between a Prutah and a Lepton. I know too little about these denominations. I wonder if such rare coins are still collectible at this poor condition ? Hendin 1244. Thanks for your comments.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1129356[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1129357[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
