This book contains replica coins from Biblical times. Included in the book is a Widow's Mite, Gold Daric, Lepton, Tribute Penny, Shekel and Half-Shekel. Written by Arthur Friedberg, you will see how each coin reflects the politics of its time. The coins will be presented in a mostly chronological order. It would tke many hundreds of pages, far more than in this book, to present a comprehensive catalog of the coinage. This is rather a compendium of the money of biblical times, consisting mostly of those coins that would be most significant in the eyes of the reader. Full color illustrations.
