![]() Three of Coins from the 1JJ Tarot deck | |
Deck | Minor Arcana |
The suit of coins is one of the four suits used in tarot decks with Latin-suited cards. It is derived from the suit of coins in Italian and Spanish card playing packs.
In occult uses of tarot, Coins is considered part of the "Minor Arcana", and may alternately be known as "Pentacles", though this has no basis in its original use for card games.[1] Like the other tarot suits, it contains fourteen cards: ace (one), two through ten, page, knight, queen and king.
