A beautiful description for a coin in rather rough condition. If you can get $3-5 you're doing well.

Bar Kochba, Large Bronze, 133/134 CE
The rarest of all Bar Kochba denominations is the large (28-35mm.) bronze, overstruck (and usually weak, with parts of the design or inscription indistinct) on a Roman sestertius. The large size allowed the engravers to inscribe the full name of “Shim’on Prince (Nasi) of Israel” within a wreath. The reverse features an amphora, which Romanoff concludes “was the vessel of oil which nourished the flames of the Temple Menorah (7-branched candelabrum).
