A work by 16th century Dutch artist Hendrick Goltzius. It makes a glorious Judgment card.

This painting by Hendrick van der Borcht has a lush, opulent quality that immediately made me think of the Ten of Cups. The coins, as well as the round shape of the work, further reinforce ideas of money and wealth associated with that card.

On a related note, I ran across this book by Rohit Arya on using the Tarot to manifest wealth. I haven't read it, but it seems quite interesting.

In this antiquated ad for a firecracker, a Tarot-like stricken tower erupts money. Is this the home of the King of Coins?
