[QUOTE="Gam3rBlake, post: 7756142, member: 115909"]According to historians it would most likely be an Antiochan tetradrachm with Tiberius on the obverse and Augustus on the reverse. Although I think a lot of the stories in the Bible are intended to be metaphors. It’s interesting how often coins are mentioned in the Bible. Like when some people try to trick Jesus by asking if his followers should pay taxes or not: “Jesus first called them hypocrites, and then asked one of them to produce a Roman coin that would be suitable for paying Caesar's tax. One of them showed him a Roman coin, and he asked them whose head and inscription were on it. They answered, "Caesar's," and he responded: "Render therefore unto Caesar the things which are Caesar's; and unto God the things that are God's".”[/QUOTE]
