Beschrijving keerzijde A tetrastyle or distyle temple facade depicted in frontal view, with a triangular pediment supported by two columns; within the intercolumniation, two figures are visible flanking the central space, possibly representing cult statues or attendants. The composition is framed by a circular Greek legend reading ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥΣ ΜΕΓΑΣ ΑΓΡΙΠΠΑΣ ΦΙΛΟΚΑΙΣΑΡ, identifying the issuer as the Great King Agrippa, Friend of Caesar. The architectural rendering is characteristic of Herodian dynastic coinage and reflects the Hellenistic-Roman cultural milieu of Caesarea Maritima. The surface shows typical dark green patination with areas of earthen deposits consistent with long burial.

Aanvullende informatie

Struck in year 8 of Agrippa's reign (42–43 CE), this issue dates to the final year of his rule — he died suddenly in 44 CE at Caesarea Maritima under circumstances described in both Josephus and the Acts of the Apostles. His kingship was the last time a single ruler governed the whole of Judea before Rome dissolved the client monarchy and returned the territory to direct prefectural administration under Cuspius Fadus.

Agrippa consistently avoided imagery that would offend Jewish sensibilities in his Judean issues, a calculated political distinction from the coins he struck for his non-Jewish territories.
