Widow's MiteThese ancient coins were minted during the reign of King Alexander Janneus, nephew of Simon and Judah Maccabee, over 2,000 years ago. Janneus was a young and ambitious leader who became ruler of the Jews in 103 B.C. These bronze Prutahs (coins) mentioned in the New Testament stand as symbols of generosity in Christianity: Jesus sat down opposite the place where offerings were made and watched as people put their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts, but a poor widow came and put in two small copper coins worth only a fraction of a penny. Jesus called his disciples to him and said, "I tell you the truth, this poor widow put more into the treasury than all the others. For all of them have contributed out of their abundance; but she out of her poverty has put in everything she had, all she had to live on." Luke 21:3-21:4. This shows how a genuine act of giving can be a powerful gesture of love. It is also the reason why Widow's Mite coins are historical treasures known worldwide. These coins are part of a treasure which was discovered at The Sea of Galilee after many years of drought. Since these coins are authentic historical coins, there are limited amounts.
