Additional information

This bronze was struck at Caesarea Philippi under Agrippa II, the last of the Herodian client kings, who had openly sided with Rome during the Jewish revolt of 66–73 AD. His loyalty was rewarded with territorial expansions under successive emperors, and his continued minting privileges under Domitian reflect that sustained Roman confidence. The pairing of Domitian with Agrippa on a provincial issue is politically deliberate — a calculated display of dynastic alignment from a king whose kingdom would outlive him by name only.
