I had absolutely no idea that a Denarius was worth ten asses.
Thanks for the info, I think.

I thought two asses were a goodtimius and four were an exhaustius.
My mistake.

In the parable of the workers in the vineyard (Matthew 20), the coin is called a denarion, the Greek transliteration of denarius. In the King James translation, it is translated as a penny. So you have the workers agreeing to work all day for a penny.
