    Ancient Rome (Imperial): silver denarius of Tiberius, ca. 14-37 AD: the biblical "Tribute Penny"

    And they sent unto him certain of the Pharisees and of the Herodians, to catch him in his words. And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's. And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.

    (Mark 12:13-17, King James Version)

    It happens.

    Though it was too late over home plate, that poured silver "eagle-head" ingot was supercool, BTW.

    From Wikipedia, Coat of arms of the Dominican Republic, in part:

    ..."In the center of the shield, flanked by six spears (three on each side), the front four holding the national flag, is a Catholic Bible with a small golden cross above it.

    The constitution dictates that the Bible be opened to the book of the New Testament, John 8:32, which reads "conocerán la verdad, y la verdad los hará libres", literal translation: "know the truth and the truth will set you free"." 1987 DO 10 c obv.JPG 1987 DO 10 c rev.JPG

    I assume the cross on the reverse of this Edward I penny has a religious connotation 1279-1307 GB 1 p obv.JPG 1279-1307 GB 1 p rev.JPG

    Okay it's been over 24 hours. Time for a new theme. Let's make it an easy one.

    How about coins with NO busts
