A bronze prutah of Antonius Felix, procurator of Judea under Claudius
Obv.: Two oblong shields and two spears crossed surrounded by Greek inscription NEPW KΛA[Y] [KAIC]AP (Nero Claudius Caesar). Rev.: Palm tree and inscription BRIT LI[Δ] KAI (Brittanicus, year 14 of Caesar). 54 C.E. 2.88 grams, 17 mm. Cf. Ya’akov Meshorer, A Treasury of Jewish Coins (New York 2001), pl. 75, no. 340. Herod’s son who ruled in Jerusalem, Archelaus, was incompetent so the Romans appointed governors, termed procurators. Most of them, with the exception of Pontius Pilate, respected Jewish religious sensitivities and struck coins with neutral motifs, drawn largely from the seven agricultural species of Israel.
