Chazal identify coins were minted picturing an old man and woman on one
side - Rashi (Bava Kama 97b) explains Yitzchak and Rivka, and Avraham and
Sara [this must have been AFTER Avraham A begged HKBH to differentiate him
from his son - until then they looked like identical twins]


Also note they minted the couples rather than the men on one side and the
women on the other - UNLESS they had a Mechitzah between them!!


Best,

Meir G. Rabi
