| Reversbeschreibung | A lulav (palm branch bound with myrtle and willow) depicted upright at centre, with an etrog (citron) to the left, rendered in bold relief typical of Bar Kokhba revolt coinage. The Hebrew inscription is arranged around the device in the field, reading 'Shin Bet Le-Herut Yisrael' (Year Two of the Freedom of Israel). The legend is distributed on both sides of the central device in ancient square Hebrew script. The reverse, like the obverse, is struck over a previously circulating silver tetradrachm, with traces of the undertype sometimes visible on the flan. |

Struck in the second year of the Bar Kokhba revolt, this coin belongs to one of the most consequential acts of monetary defiance in ancient history. The Jewish rebels did not operate a mint in the conventional sense — they overstruck existing Roman provincial silver, effacing the imperial imagery beneath their own. Most surviving examples show traces of the host coin, often Trajanic or Hadrianic tetradrachms from the Antioch or Caesarea Maritima mints, visible in the flan's edge contours or ghosted through the new dies.
The revolt ended with catastrophic Roman reprisals under Hadrian in 135 CE. Coin production in Year Three drops sharply, likely reflecting the collapse of rebel-held territory.
