Quadrans (Biblical Roman)

The quadrans was a small Roman bronze coin used during the Roman Empire, including the Biblical era. It was worth one-quarter of an as and served as one of the lowest denominations in Roman currency.

The quadrans was commonly used for everyday small purchases and minor transactions. Its low value made it accessible to ordinary people for daily needs.

Though rarely mentioned explicitly in the Bible, the quadrans was part of the coinage system during the time of Jesus and the Roman occupation.
