Seven Burnt Coins of the Last Years of the First Jewish Revolt

Abstract

In volume 4 of this journal, Gabriela Bijovsky (2009) devoted an article to two hoards of coins
from the first Jewish revolt that were exposed to the fire that destroyed Jerusalem and the
Second Temple in the summer of 70 CE (Josephus, BJ 6:94–408). This article presents seven
other remarkable burnt coins struck in the fourth and fifth years of the first Jewish revolt, now
found in private collections.
