Ancient Biblical / Bible Coins for Sale
Tribute-Penny of Tiberius Caesar, 14-37 AD.

King James Bible, Matthew 22, verse 19-22:
"Show me the coin used for paying the tax." They brought him a denarius, and he asked them, "Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?" "Caesar's," they replied. Then he said to them, "Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, and to God what is God's."

This denarius of Tiberius depicting Livia as Pax on the back is commonly known as the 'Tribute Penny,' the coin to which Jesus referred to when he was discussing paying taxes to the Romans, and said "render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's..." (Matthew 22, Mark 12:17). There are two other reverse types on silver denarii of Tiberius, but they were only issued during the first two years of his reign, while this Pax reverse was used throughout the remainder, making it the most likely coin referred to in the Biblical verses. The term "penny" comes from from the King James translation of the Bible in 1611, and was adopted since the penny was the standard denomination of that time.
