Additional information

Gaba, a Macedonian military colony in the Jezreel Valley, was granted city status and the right to strike bronze coinage under Roman reorganization of the region following the Jewish War. The civic era used in dating this issue counts from 61/60 BCE, making year ΡΛϚ (136) correspond to 77/78 CE — squarely within Vespasian's reign, the very emperor who had prosecuted the war that reshaped Judaean civic administration entirely.
