| Obverse description | Central field dominated by a tall, stylized seven-branched palm tree with spreading fronds, flanked on each side by a hanging bunch of dates. The trunk rises from a narrow base, with the overall design rendered in low relief typical of Bar Kokhba bronze coinage. A Hebrew paleo-script legend is divided to the left and right of the palm tree in two columns, reading from right to left around the central motif. The coin is struck on an irregular, somewhat roughly prepared flan with a dotted border visible at the rim. |
