Coins discovered at archaeological sites throughout the Mediterranean region offer remarkable visual evidence for some of the historical figures mentioned in the Gospels. Caesar Augustus is one of those key people.
And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. (Luke 2:1)
Here’s a video from Pastor Gino, one of Dave’s friends, introducing us to the world of collecting coins and other artifacts related to the Bible. Coins provide awesome evidence for Caesar Augustus and other Roman leaders during the time of Jesus.

It would be cool to own some of those coins…only because of Biblical significance. I’d love to be able to own a piece of something from that time period ❤???❤

Always was interested in History, but the perspective given to it on this website by Dave, & now Pastor Gino gives it another dimension & motivates me more to share with the congregation & Children’s Church. Thank you for sharing the info on the coins Pastor Gino-adds another view. Will keep you all in prayer.
