Herod I Prutah Coin (40-4 BC) from Judaea NGC Certified (High Grade)

Herod I Prutah Coin (40-4 BC) from Judaea - NGC Certified (High Grade)???? Herod I stands out as a fascinating character in the Bible. A master of politics and the most remarkable builder in Jewish history, he also showed signs of paranoia, eliminating anyone he viewed as a threat, including rivals, family, and even innocent infants. As the King of the Jews, crowned by the Roman Senate, Herod reigned from 40 BC until his death 36 years later, plagued by illness. His ambitious construction projects included the expansion of Jerusalem's Second Temple, of which only the iconic Western Wall survives, along with fortresses in Masada, Antonia, and Herodium; the bustling port city of Caesarea; the grand structure over the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron; and extensive defenses around Jerusalem, including three towers at the city's gateways.
