WATCH: Coin minted during the Jewish Revolt uncovered near the Temple Mount

1,955-year-old coin minted in the final year of the Jewish Revolt against Rome, just months before the destruction of Second Temple, discovered near the Temple Mount in Jerusalem

Archeologists in Israel recently uncovered a rare coin dating back to the very end of the Second Temple period, minted by Jewish rebels following the overthrow of the Roman governor and shortly before the destruction of Jerusalem at the hands of Roman legions sent to crush the revolt.

The bronze coin was uncovered near the southwest corner of the Temple Mount during an excavation by the Israel Antiquities Authority, in collaboration with the City of David and Jewish Quarter Reconstruction and Development Company.

The coin was minted during the 4th year of the Great Revolt against the Romans, coinciding with the year 70 of the Common Era.

All they did was to get rid of the Jewish ✡️ people ✡️ 🇮🇱. The Jewish ✡️ people are still here for more than 3500 years, and still thriving.

That's wonderful. That also shows that the "Romans" didn't know anything about Israel, nor the Jewish people.
