Heritage Auctions (HA.com) - Highlights of the Shoshana Collection: Judaean Coins of the Persian Period, Maccabee and Herodian Eras, The Jewish War, Bar Kokhba Revolt, Roman Judea Capta Coinage and City Coins of the Ancient Holy Land. The auction of The Shoshana Collection of Ancient Judaean Coins at Heritage is truly a sale of epic history. Among the hundreds of coins to be sold in New York will be a Silver Year 1 Shekel prototype coin -- among the very first coins minted by Jewish Revolutionaries when they ousted the Roman Legion from Jerusalem in 66 A.D. -- along with a Year 5 Shekel, found at Masada, along with hundreds of other ancient coins of the region. Altogether, these coins tell the compelling story of the "recent" history of the Jewish People. More info: http://www.HA.com/3003

Very nice pieces of history--some of those are very rare. And, that's the only imitative owl drachm with a lily next to the owl I've seen.
