Heraclius (610-641). AE Follis. Arab Byzantine war issue. Military mint in Palestine, likely Neapolis (Nablus), RY [...] (25=634/35 AD). Obv. Heraclius and Heraclius Constantine standing facing; cross between. Rev. Large M between A/N/N/O and [...]; below, A; in exergue, NЄA. D.O. ; MIB X24; Sear -; Album 3502N. AE. 6.04 g. 25.5 mm. RRR. Extremely rare, choice for issue. Good VF. This fascinating issue was struck in 634/5 by a military mint in Palestine, likely Neapolis (Nablus). Whether the mint itself was set up permanently in Neapolis or moved around with the army during the war against the Arab Invaders is unclear, but the Roman rule in Palestine came to an abrupt end soon thereafter, in 636, following the disastrous defeat inflicted upon Heraclius by the Arabs in the Battle of Yarmouk.
