What is "denomination"?

In card games, denomination refers to the value or rank assigned to each card within a suit. For example, in a standard deck, the denominations include numbers, 2 through 10, and face cards, jack, queen, king, as well as the ace, which can be high or low depending on the game. The denomination determines a card's worth in relation to other cards in the game. In some games, the denomination can be more important than the suit, while in others, both the suit and the denomination may play a role in determining a hand's strength.
