Each
widow's
mite bronze coin was hand-struck in Judea during the reign of
Alexander Jannaeus (106-73 BCE). Due to this special method, each coin
is entirely unique (appearances will therefore vary). No other coin
matches the specifications of your individual gift.
The obverse side of the mite has an inverted anchor with the
inscription "Basileus Alexandrou" (reign of Alexander [Jannaeus]). The
reverse side, usually more pronounced, has an eight-pointed star
surrounded by a circle, giving the appearance of a wheel. Each coin is
attractively mounted in a uniquely designed pendant. Most pendants are
approximately 1.5cm in diameter. We deliberately chose a elegant,
understated settings to reflect the simplicity and stark beauty of the
symbolism typified by the widow's mite.
To best showcase the powerful simplicity of your widow's mite, each
pendant can be presented in an attractive olivewood box made especially
for us by Bethlehem artisans. Included is a certificate of authenticity
signed by one of Israel's premier antiquities experts, as well as an
informative letter explaining the significance of this very special
gift.
