| Reverse description | A lituus, the curved augural staff of Roman religious office, depicted centrally in the field as a symbol of Roman imperial authority. The staff is rendered vertically with its characteristic volute curl at the upper end. The surrounding circular Greek legend reads ΤΙΒΕΡΙΟΥ ΚΑΙCΑΡΟC, referencing the reigning emperor Tiberius Caesar. The date LIS (year 16 of Tiberius) appears in the field. The overall design reflects the deliberate use of Roman symbolic imagery by the prefect Pontius Pilate on Judaean coinage. |
