This 103-76 B.C.E. Widow's Mite Biblical Coin Pendant, beautifully set in a handcrafted 14K gold twisted cross, offers a striking way to display both history and faith. Known as the smallest denomination coin in the Holy Lands during the time of Christ, the Widow's Mite holds deep spiritual significance. These coins, with a value of 1/400th of a silver shekel, were mentioned by Jesus in the Book of Mark 12:41-44, symbolizing ultimate devotion and sacrifice despite their low monetary worth.
The obverse side of the coin features a star of eight pellets, also known as a sun wheel, surrounded by a diadem, representing ancient symbols of power and divinity. The reverse side depicts an upside-down anchor within a circle, a classic representation of hope and steadfastness.
Encased in an elegant 14K gold twisted cross, this pendant is not just a piece of history but a powerful reminder of faith and commitment. With a size comparable to a quarter, it makes for an eye-catching and meaningful addition to any collection, connecting you to ancient times and the teachings of Jesus.
