| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central type depicts a ceremonial chalice (omer cup) with a beaded base, straight-sided body, and a flat rim, presented in high relief against a flat field. Three pomegranates appear above the cup, rendered in a stylized manner characteristic of ancient Judaean coinage. The Hebrew legend שקל ישראל א (Sheqel of Israel, Year 1) surrounds the central device in paleo-Hebrew (ancient Hebrew) script, reading clockwise. The coin exhibits the irregularly flan typical of hand-struck Judaean silver issues of the First Revolt period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central type features a branch bearing three pomegranates, the central fruit rising on a tall stem with two lateral stems each bearing a pomegranate bud, rendered in bold relief in the characteristic style of First Revolt coinage. The surrounding circular legend ירושלם קדשה (Jerusalem the Holy) is inscribed in paleo-Hebrew script. The flan is irregularly shaped, consistent with hand-hammered production, and the surfaces show the typical granular texture of ancient silver. The design is framed by a plain border, with the inscription occupying the full circumference of the coin. |

The First Jewish Revolt against Rome began in 66 CE, and the immediate striking of silver sheqels was a deliberate political act — coinage being one of the clearest assertions of independent authority a rebel government could make. Jerusalem's provisional administration produced these in the first year of what they designated a new era, dating them explicitly on the coin itself. Rome took the revolt seriously enough to send Vespasian, then his son Titus, to suppress it. The Temple fell in 70 CE, ending both the revolt and the series after just five years of production.
