Category:Hebrew coins from Turris Babel, by Athanasius Kircher

This category collects the reproductions of some ancient Hebrew coins presented in Athanasius Kircher's 1697 book Turris Babel, extracted from the djvu file. In the book, Kircher states these to be reproductions of coins he saw in the Roman College, where they had been brought by Juan Bautista Villalpando, and in the private collections of Francesco Gualdo, Francesco Angeloni, and of a D. Franz Gottifred (Inveniuntur hîc Romæ passim in musæis, tum Collegii Romani à Villalpando olim ex Hispania allatæ, tum clarissimorum virorum Francisci Gualdi, et Francisci Angelomi, et inclyti viri D. Francisci Gottifredi (...) monetæ argenteæ vetustis characteribus Hebræorum inscriptæ; quos Siclos vocant).
