Zuz - Simeon bar Kosevah and Eleazar the priest Year One and Two

Struck during the Bar Kokhba revolt against Rome, these coins were produced by overstriking existing Roman denarii — the rebels lacked a functioning mint infrastructure and relied entirely on captured silver in circulation. The Jewish authority deliberately effaced Roman imagery in favor of nationalist symbols, an act of ideological as much as monetary defiance. Year One and Year Two issues exist within the series, with Year One generally scarcer; the precise chronology of production within the revolt's three-year span remains debated among specialists.

Hendin 1384 represents one of the named priestly issues, invoking Eleazar alongside Simeon, a detail that disappears from later revolt coinage entirely.
