A bronze prutah of Alexander Jannaeus – cursive letters
Obv.: Paleo-Hebrew inscription in wreath: Yehonatan the High Priest and council of the Jews. Rev.: Double cornucopia with a pomegranate between horns. 2.00 grams, 14¾ mm, axis 12. For similar examples see: Ya’akov Meshorer, A Treasury of Jewish Coins (New York 2001), pl. 34-35 sub-group R. After the ‘Maccabaean Revolt’, the Hasmonaean kingdom was founded which lasted for just under a hundred years. The alphabet employed was not the square Hebrew script current at the time, but the script from the First Temple period, implying a connection between the Hasmoneans and the First Temple. The symbols employed show a clear Hellenising trend.
