Meshorer and Samel thought the female head was aposthumous portrait of Livia, which seems unlikely and can also be rejectedsince it has the wrong hairstyle for Livia. N. Kokkinos, Liber Annuus 35 (1985),pp. 303-6 has implausibly suggested that this is a coin of the city of Sebasteand dated by a regnal year of Herod. On this series, see now A. Burnett, ‘Wife, Sister, or Daughter?’, INR 6 (2011), pp. 121-5. The female head labelled CEBACTH on coins of Agrippa II of year 19 is interpreted as Julia, the daughter of the Emperor Titus, and all the coinage of Agrippa II, apart from the Latin series of years 25-26, is to be attributed to Tiberias, according to the late Alla Kushnir-Stein
