These have gotten expensive and I'm not sure why. They don't seem to be scarce on the market. Another good portrait though.
They are in high demand amongst Christians; similar to the Shekel of Tyre. Everyone seems to need the biblical coins in their collection.
Yeah, everyone wants to get their hands on a tribute penny. I have been very tempted to invest in one and double the price in my hometown which is smack in the middle of the bible belt. That and selling widow mites for a profit.
I yawn at these things. They are common as dirt & I detest the high prices they go for. I am happy with my bronze.
