Ancient Byzantine Oil Lamp Pottery, Holy Land 5th-7th Century (Byz33) bezel The denarius of Ceasar Tiberius

The denarius of Ceasar Tiberius is the same coin referred to by Jesus Christ when asked about paying taxes in Mark 12:15-16

It is a prized possession for Bible historians

FESTUS SENT PAUL TO CEASAR Festus kept Paul in prison as a favor to the Jews

It is interesting to note that the cross used in present times is the direct descendant of the lituus

Need to purchase some authentic Biblical coins
