The 14AD-37AD Denarius - Tiberius Silver Denarius of Emperor Tiberius, struck between 14AD and 37AD in the Mint Lugdunum (located near Lyon, France) which was the principle precious metal mint under Tiberius.
This type of coin was the main design used throughout the reign of Emperor Tiberius. The silver denarii is widely collected as it is the 'Tribute Penny' described in the Bible as the coin shown to Jesus.
The Obverse shows the laureated head of Tiberius facing right. Legend is "TI CAESAR [DIVI] AVG F AVGVSTVS".
The Reverse shows a female figure seated facing right, holding a sceptre and a branch. The female is not fully identified; it may be Livia wife of Augustus, or it could be the mother of Tiberius, or it may be Pax, or maybe just a Priestess. Legend is "[PONTIF] MAXIM".Image credit: Museums Victoria
