Penny

PENNY pen'-i (denarion; Latin denarius (which see)):

the American Standard Revised Version (Matthew 18:28; 20:2,9,10,13, etc.) renders it by "shilling" except in Matthew 22:19; Mark 12:15 and Luke 20:24, where it retains the original term as it refers to a particular coin.

See DENARIUS; MONEY.
