JUDAEA, Joppa. Severus Alexander. AD 222-235. Æ (19.5mm, 6.56 g, 12h). Laureate and draped bust right / Athena standing facing, head left, holding spear and shield set on ground. Rosenberger 12; Sofaer 22-3. Dark green patina with some light earthen highlights/deposits, some smoothing, Athena tooled(?). Fine.

Athena is rather crude on this coin, and the two Sofaer examples are also crudely engraved, which may account for what looks like tooling.
