| Reverse description | A tripod table depicted in schematic form at center, enclosed within a single dotted or plain circular border. The tripod, a common Hellenistic cultic and ceremonial symbol adopted by Herod to appeal to his Greco-Roman subjects while avoiding figural imagery proscribed by Jewish law, is rendered with three legs supporting a flat surface. The field is otherwise plain and the flan is irregular, consistent with hand-hammered production at the Jerusalem mint. |
