Now you will say maybe, Sylvius, but you keep on saying that it is all about "yom hashishi" of Genesis 1:31?
but I say the one thing doesn't contradict the other
(...).
Mark 12:16,
They brought one to him and he said to them, "Whose image and inscription is this?" They replied to him, "Caesar's."
image= Greek "eikon";
you'll find also in Revelation 13:14-15,
It deceived the inhabitants of the earth with the signs it was allowed to perform in the sight of the first beast, telling them to make an image for the beast who had been wounded by the sword and revived. It was then permitted to breathe life into the beast's image, so that the beast's image could speak and (could) have anyone who did not worship it put to death.
inscription = Greek "epigraphè",
word that returns in Mark 15:26,
The inscription of the charge against him read, "The King of the Jews."
which is about the sixth day, the day on which he was crucified.
(and remember gematria of "Yeshu Notsri" is 666. )
About the coin, it's meaning, read Rashi on Genesis 1:27, (consider that image, Hebrew "tselem" , = Greek "eikon")

And God created man in His image In the form that was made for him, for everything [else] was created with a command, whereas he [man] was created with the hands (of God), as it is written (Ps. 139:5): “and You placed Your hand upon me.” Man was made with a die, like a coin, which is made by means of a die, which is called coin in Old French. And so Scripture states (Job 38:14): “The die changes like clay.” - [from Letters of Rabbi Akiva , second version; Mid. Ps. 139:5; Sanh. 38a]
in the image of God He created him It explains to you that the image that was prepared for him was the image of the likeness of his Creator. — [from B.B. 58a]
