Judaea, Jerusalem. Coponius. 6-9 C.E. AE prutah (15.5 mm, 1.56 g, 12 h). Roman procurators issue. Jerusalem mint, Struck A.D. 6/7. KAI[CA]-POC, ear of barley / anepigraphic, L - AC (yr. 36 of Augustus = 6/7 A.D.) across field, divided by palm tree with fruits. Meshorer 311; Hendin 1328; RPC I 4954.. VF, nicer than typical flan, dark brown patina with ochre deposits in fields and recesses. 

Evidently there is some disagreement as to whether this coin was struck for Coponius or for Marcus Ambibulus - we went with Coponius
