"Or suppose a woman has ten silver coins and loses one. Does she not light a lamp, sweep the house and search carefully until she finds it? And when she finds it, she calls her friends and neighbors together and says, 'Rejoice with me; I have found my lost coin.' In the same way, I tell you, there is rejoicing in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner who repents." (words of Jesus in Luke 15:8-10)
Will they also rejoice over you?
The Greek coin word used in the above text is drachm or drachma for plural. Being similar to the Roman denarius, it is worth about a day's wages. This drachm is from the Syrian Empire.
