| Aversbeschreibung | Greek inscription arranged in multiple lines within a circular olive or laurel wreath that fills the coin's field. The legend reads ΓΑΙΩ ΚΑΙCΑΡ ΓΕΡΜΑΝΙΚΩ, honoring Gaius Caesar Germanicus (Caligula). The wreath is rendered with stylized leaves tied at the base, characteristic of Herodian bronze coinage of the period. No figurative imagery appears; the design is entirely epigraphic in the Herodian aniconic tradition. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A single upright palm branch with fronds splaying symmetrically to either side, centered in the coin's field. Flanking the palm branch, a Greek legend is distributed across the field identifying the issuer and regnal year. The palm branch is a common Herodian dynastic symbol evoking Judean identity and appears frequently on the bronzes of Herod Antipas. The design is bold and simply rendered, consistent with the hammered provincial coinage of the region. |

Herod Antipas ruled Galilee and Perea as tetrarch under Roman sufferance for over four decades, but his coinage ambitions were always constrained — he never struck silver, and his bronzes carefully avoided figural imagery to avoid offending Jewish religious sensibilities. This piece dates to the very end of his reign; in 39 AD, his wife Herodias pushed him to travel to Rome to petition Caligula for the title of king, a move that backfired catastrophically when his nephew Agrippa I counter-lobbied against him. Antipas was exiled to Lugdunum in Gaul, ending the Herodian tetrarchy of Galilee permanently.
