A bronze prutah of Coponius, procurator of Judea under Augustus
Obv.: Ear of grain surrounded by Greek inscription KAICAPOC (of Caesar). Rev.: Palm tree and underneath the date L Λς (year 36). 6/7 C.E. 1.79 grams, 17 mm, axis 12. Ya’akov Meshorer, A Treasury of Jewish Coins (New York 2001), pl. 73, no. 311. Herod’s son who ruled in Jerusalem, Archelaus, was incompetent so the Romans appointed governors, termed procurators. Most of them, with the exception of Pontius Pilate, respected Jewish religious sensitivities and struck coins with neutral motifs, drawn largely from the seven agricultural species of Israel.
