| Summary: | The numismatic collection of the SBF Museum holds numerous coins without any sure indication of provenance or archaeological digs. Among these, a special case was chosen to be examined because of the large number of coins. This collection is surprisingly complete, without aporias or gaps. This study highlights how these coins have the same physical and typological characteristics of the coins found in the historical Palestine region. The numismatic analysis reinforces the current research started in the last decades that has shed new light. This is particularly true not only as regards the presence of the Carthaginian and the Ostrogoth nummi, but also the Arab-Byzantine coins. As result it is clear that all these coins have originated anywhere else other than in the Syro-Palestinian region. In fact, this numismatic documentation provides new data for scholars especially regarding the production and supply of prutot during the Hasmonean-Herodian period, the influence of the bronze coin of Carthage, within the limited circulation between the 5th and the first decades of the 6th century, the acceptance on the money market of the Alexandrian dodecanummia and its imitations throughout the 6th century. |
