Exegesis
The genitive Kaisaros {Καίσαρος | Kai-sá-ros} “of Caesar” stands alone as the content of the answer, syntactically dependent on the earlier tinos and semantically identifying the imperial authority represented by the coin. The rapid movement from command to question to answer preserves the rhetorical force of the exchange and underlines the coin’s role as evidence of Roman authority.
