The kids “spotted a gold coin on the ground.”
All I spot is cigarette butts.

That’s a pretty nicely minted and preserved coin, as ancient coins go.

That’s what happens when you come to where the flavor is, instead of this trail thing.

The workmanship is pretty good for the period.

If earlier date might have been the origination of parable of the lost coin. But we do have an idea of how the person thought and acted when he lost it.

Was Joseph of Arimathea a “Nasi” member of the Sanhedrin?

The pupils handed the coin to Nir Distelfeld.
Bet he will never forget that moment for the fest of his life.

What would someone buy with that, a house, a herd of camels, goats, sheep????
Or an emperor’s package at Cesar’s?
To: SunkenCiv
I wonder how much it would bring on eBay?

What’s particularly fascinating about this coin is how strongly the likeness of Theo. II resembles the bug-eyed look his bust housed at the Louvre.

“...four ninth grade students...Ido Kadosh, Ofir Sigal, Dotan Miller and Harel Grin...they reported it to their geography and history teacher Zohar Porshyan, who contacted the Israel Antiquities Authority.”
Wow! Honest people! Renews my faith in humanity.

I lost one just like that when I was walking around that area, birdwatching.
Where can I make a missing items report?
To: july4thfreedomfoundation
Between $50-150 K, I’m guessing. It’s in excellent condition.
