Description
Ptolemaic Rule. Ptolemy I, 305-282 BCE. AR-Hemiobol, Jerusalem; 0,24 g Plain (?)//YHZQYH left of an owl standing to r., head facing; its feathers around its head form a nimbus-like object, HRḤH (Yehezeqiyah the governour) to the right of it. Hendin no. 1069; Meshorer, Treasury 199 no. 22.
Very rare in this nice state of preservation. Obv. plain as usual; rev. very fine
Overbeck – Meshorer no. 4.
It is worth considering whether the mentioned governor Yehezeqiyah is to be identified with the high priest Ἐζεκίας mentioned by Josephus, Contra Apionem I 22, 9.
