Time Sensitive: Does this Prutah of the Jewish revolt appear fake.

Looks OK to me.

 

I agree.

 

Looks OK to me as well.

 

I see no problems with it.

 

It looks like a Hendin 1360 AE prutah to me. The pic matches well with the ones in SNG ANS Palestine #427 - #449 (I have the book because it was cheep, $10 from one of the VCoin book sellers).

Is the pic all you have? Do you have weight, diameter or orientation? The weight range on these is pretty big: 2.43 - 3.59 in SNGANSP, but the orientation is almost all either 12 or 6. If you want to buy it and the price is low, I'd say go for it. If the price is a bit high, I would want more information on the seller, where it came from, etc.

Per Hendin:
Obv - broad rim amphora with 2 handles, year 2 (67 AD), some letters I can not write here
Rev - vine leaf on small branch with tendril, more letters I can not write here.

 

For $20 would that be fair?

 

An excellent price, more than fair imo.

 

I was told it was between 2 and 3 grams
