The denarius was an ancient Roman silver coin minted approximately between 268 B.C. and 360. In 212 B.C., the denarius became the basis of the new monetary system, replacing the ace as the reference coin when changing from the copper standard to the silver standard.
It was under the reign of Caracalla that the Antoninian or Double Denarius was introduced, a coin that would eventually replace the denarius completely under the rule of Gordian III.
In the Bible it is said that a denarius is the payment given to a worker for a day's work.
