King David collects ten thousand drams (also known as darics) for the construction of the temple in Jerusalem.
1 Chronicles 29:7 And gave for the service of the house of God of gold five thousand talents and ten thousand drams, and of silver ten thousand talents, and of brass eighteen thousand talents, and one hundred thousand talents of iron.
This is particularly interesting since darics were coins named after King Darius I who lived some five hundred years after David.
