Abstract
Eight coins were found in the excavations on Yehuda Ha-Yammit Street in Yafo, four of which were identified. The coins range in date from the Byzantine period (beginning of the fourth century CE) to the mid-thirteenth century CE. Two of the later medieval-period coins are of interest: a copper tank of the Armenian ruler Levon I, minted in Sis, and the other, a fals dated to the reign of Al-Naṣir Yusuf II, the Ayyubid ruler of Damascus in the mid-thirteenth century CE.
