| Reverse description | A wide angular lyre (nevel or harp-type chelys) with typically six strings, depicted frontally and occupying the central field. The instrument rests on a flat base and is shown with a pronounced crossbar and upright arms, rendered in a stylized but recognizable form. The surrounding paleo-Hebrew legend encircles the design along the coin's border. The overall execution is typical of the hammered coinage of the Bar Kokhba revolt, with moderate relief and an irregular flan. |
