| Obverse description | Central device consists of a stylized palm tree depicted frontally, with fronds radiating symmetrically outward from a central trunk in a schematic, linear style characteristic of Bar Kokhba coinage. The Hebrew legend SHIM'ON (שמעון), referring to Simon bar Kokhba, appears in the field flanking the palm trunk. The design is struck on an irregularly shaped flan with uneven surfaces, typical of the hastily produced bronze prutot of the revolt period. |
