This is Hasmonaean, but which ruler I'm not sure. Maybe someone can verify.


Yep, the coin is Sear(G)#6096, so it is John Hyrcanus II who ruled in 69BC and from 63BC to 40BC.

The Hebrew legen is 'Yehohanan the high priest and the community of the Jews' and above it is a Greek A.

I've got one that sort of counts as an "I" (unless I start counting all my "IVLIA"s...).
