| Obverse description | Facade of the Jerusalem Temple depicted in high relief at centre, with a star above the portico; the showbread table (or tabula ansata) is visible within the entrance of the Temple. Hebrew inscription reading 'Shimon' (Simon) is distributed across the field in two lines, one on each side of the Temple facade. The design is rendered in the characteristic flat, stylised engraving style of Bar Kokhba coinage, struck over an earlier host coin. |
