Antique Christian Widow's Mite Coin Necklace, Ancient Coin Silver Pendant, vintage style Israeli jewelry, Jewish Prutah, Men Christmas gift

from $130.00
A Real Antique, appx. 2000 years old widow's mite coin, set in a 925 Sterling Silver pendant with an elegant designed bail.

♦ This small bronze coin was made famous in Jesus' parable of the Widow's Offering (Mark 12, Luke 21):
“And Jesus sat over against the (Temple) treasury and beheld how the people cast in money… And there came a poor widow and threw in two mites…”
(Mk. 12:41-44)
In this story, the widow gives an offering of only two small coins, worth only a fraction of a penny, yet Jesus valued her offering greater than all the others because she gave everything she had.
This coin was first minted by Alexander Jannaeus (76-103 B.C.), and was mass-produced in Jerusalem. The front contains a star design with the paleo-Hebrew characters of Jehonatan (Alexander Jannaeus Hebrew name) between the rays. The back contains an anchor as a symbol of naval strength after conquering the philistine coastal cities with the Greek inscription reading, "King Alexander”.
These small coins were in circulation for a long duration, and were used as the small change in the first century A.D. It is the smallest coin in use during Jesus' time, and is therefore known as the 'Widow's Mite" from this New Testament parable.
Although this coin is small and unimpressive, it is a constant reminder of Jesus' message that God values the heart and sacrifice of a person, not the outward standards of people.

♦ See photos of the coin before setting- the coin has a grey patina and visible details on both sides- the star and anchor . you will receive the exact item in photos.
**Including an Authenticity certificate from an Authorized antiquities dealer**

♦ Back side stamped "925" for Sterling silver.

♦ size: 3/4" (18 mm) in diameter.

♦ You can purchase this pendant with or without a chain. We offer 16"/ 18" / 20" silver box chain.

Makes a beautiful Christmas Gift for a loved one or a wonderful addition to your own collection!
