Bar Kokhba Revolt - Silver Sela Sculpture

On the coin sculpture is written: Shimon (Bar Kochba). The silver sela or tetradrachm features what may be the most symbolic design, the only numismatic representation of the Jerusalem Temple, although it is unclear whether it is meant to depict the Herodian temple destroyed by the Romans in A.D. 70 or a new temple longed for by the messianic Shimon bar Kochba and his followers. Made from white concrete with sand from the Holy Land, this piece features a stone monument from the Temple Mount and comes with a wall hanger and nail for easy display on the wall!
