A Sterling silver bracelet made up of replica ancient Roman coins.
This is the coin mentioned in the New Testament. The coin, called a "penny" in the bible is correctly called a "tribute denarius". The face on the coin is of the Roman Emperor Tiberius who ruled during the time of Jesus.
St. Mark 12:14-16..."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 said 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."
