An enduring symbol of faith and sacrifice, the legend of the Widow's Mite comes straight from the pages of the Bible. This authentic bronze coin actually circulated during the Bibl ical time of the New Testament, 100 B.C. - 60 A.D. The smallest of all Roman coins, its Biblical name comes from the story in Mark 12:41-44 when Jesus praised a poor widow for giving all she had - her last two coins - while rich townspeople gave only a small portion of their wealth. Displayed in a sonically sealed acrylic. Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity. Show more
