NGC Certified AE Prutah of Porcius Festus Roman Governor of Judaea AD59-62 - Medium GradePorcius Festus served as the fifth procurator of Judea from around 59 to 62 AD, succeeding Antonius Felix and preceding Lucceius Albinus. The exact duration of his tenure remains uncertain, with scholars typically suggesting a period between 58 and 60 AD. Festus faced inherited challenges regarding the Roman practice of granting civic privileges to Jews and a dispute between Herod Agrippa II and Jerusalem priests over a temple wall. His administration witnessed heightened Jewish hostility towards Rome, which contributed to the outbreak of the Jewish War in AD 66. According to the Acts of the Apostles, Festus presided over the final hearing of the Apostle Paul, who ultimately appealed to the Emperor and was sent to Rome for judgment despite Festus's difficulty in detailing charges against him.
