A bronze prutah of Pontius Pilate, procurator of Judea under Tiberius
Obv.: Lituus (divining rod) surrounded by Greek inscription TIBEPIOY K[AICAPO]C (of Tiberius Caesar). Rev.: Date in wreath LIZ (year 17). 30 C.E. 1.46 grams, 15¾ mm, axis 7. Cf. Ya’akov Meshorer, A Treasury of Jewish Coins (New York 2001), pl. 74, no. 333. 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.
