This was something that has been on my radar for a while. A Bar Kakhba revolt Jewish coin. Lots of really cool history attached to this one! Some might say “you’re not Jewish, why would you collect early Jewish coinage?” The history. Lots of really important history. To those I would also say “I’m not Peruvian, Guatemalan Bolivian or Mexican either…but here we are.” 😇🤣
Would I like a silver one? Yes. Will I buy one? Probably not.
I also share a name with the rebel Kakhba!

I know a few people in here are collectors of this coinage, post em if you got em! Either the first or second revolt, or anything remotely associated.

Very cool!
I would like to someday add a 1st Revolt silver coin to my collection. I like the 2nd Revolt bronze coin posted here.
