BAR KOCHBA SILVER DENARIUS [132-133 CE] - Graphite Coin Mold

Description

The Denarius is an ancient Roman silver coin that was struck in dozens of varieties. This coin is easy to distinguish from its counterparts as it features a large bunch of grapes as its unique centerpiece.
In the New Testament, the gospels refer to the “Denarius” as a day's wage for a common laborer, and a single coin held the purchasing power of approximately 1 quart of wheat, or 3 quarts of barley at that time.
