De nvmismate censvs, a Pharisaeis in qvaestionem vocato : dissertatio theologistorica Marqvardi Freheri ..
A 1599 Latin dissertation by the German scholar Marquard Freher, printed in Heidelberg by Andreas Cambier, on the coin mentioned in the Pharisees' question about tribute. Its pictures are woodcut medallion portraits of Roman emperors and officials, each a bust in a ring of lettering and beaded or dotted borders, set in plain printed text with no colour. A designer could take the circular seal-like framing, the bold line profiles and the classical lettered rims as a model for emblem and medal layouts.
