Without context: within the Christian Church the different denominations include the Roman Catholics, the Russian and the Greek Orthodox Churches, the Anglicans, the Presbyterians, the Baptists, the Methodists. Each has its own dogma and method of conducting worship. If you could provide more context, you may get a more precise answer.

Denomination in the context the OP is talking about seems to refer to it in a religious context; however denomination can be used to describe quantities of money ("I received my pocket money in coins of small denominations", which would infer coins of low value, 1p, 5p, 20p pieces etc).
