JUDAEA, Roman Administration. Pontius Pilate, 26-36. Prutah (Bronze, 15.5 mm, 1.82 g), 30/1 Irregular date. LIZ (retrograde) within wreath. Rev. TIBEPIOY KAICAPOC (irregular) Lituus. Hendin -. Sofaer -. Meshorer -. For similar obverse see Fontanille 75a-76a. An interesting piece. Extremely rare, seemingly unique. Nicely centered. With earthen encrustations as found, otherwise, very fine.

From an American collection.

Seemingly unpublished irregular type. The legend on the obverse is a retrograde but incomplete spelling of LIZ. The reverse legend appears nothing like the standard issue.
