A representative lot of Hasmonaean coins of different types
The lot is including coins of John Hyrcanus, Alexander Jannaeus, Judah Aristobulus and Mattathias Antigonus. 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.
