| Aversbeschreibung | Central field bearing the two-word Hebrew inscription ירושלם (Jerusalem) arranged within a wreath of olive or laurel branches tied at the base. The wreath, rendered in low relief with individual leaves depicted schematically, entirely encircles the legend and serves as the primary decorative border element. The inscription is written in the ancient Hebrew (paleo-Hebrew) script characteristic of Bar Kokhba coinage, evoking the nationalist and religious symbolism of the revolt. The flan is irregular in shape, consistent with the hand-struck production methods of the period. |

| Reversbeschreibung | A tall amphora with two loop handles depicted in bold, stylised relief at the centre of the flan, its body decorated with vertical ribbing or fluting and supported on a circular foot. The vessel, a symbol of the Temple service and Jewish ritual life, dominates the reverse field. The circular Hebrew legend in paleo-Hebrew script surrounds the amphora, reading שנת אחת לגאלת ישראל (Year one of the redemption of Israel), distributed around the periphery of the coin. The flan is irregular and the strike slightly off-centre, typical of the hand-hammered production of Bar Kokhba bronzes. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Struck in the first year of the Bar Kokhba revolt against Rome, this issue is among the most politically charged coinages of the ancient world. Simon bar Kosevah — later called Bar Kokhba, "Son of a Star," by his supporters — organized a mint that overstruck existing Roman provincial bronzes, a deliberate act of symbolic erasure. The host coins are often still detectable beneath the Jewish types, and their identification has helped scholars map the revolt's geographic reach.
Rabbi Akiva's declaration of Bar Kokhba as the Messiah gave the revolt extraordinary momentum. By 135 AD it was over, Jerusalem razed and renamed Aelia Capitolina.
