A denomination is a recognized branch or group within a larger religious tradition. For example, in Christianity, there are various denominations such as Catholicism, Protestantism, and Orthodoxy. Each denomination may have its own beliefs, practices, and interpretations of sacred texts, but they all share a common foundation in their faith.
In addition to religion, the term "denomination" can also refer to a category of currency or a specific value of money, such as a ten-dollar bill or a one-dollar coin. This usage helps to distinguish between different values of currency in transactions and financial contexts.
