<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Deacon Ray, post: 2540052, member: 81896&quot;]<b>My apologies, Doug!!! LOL!!!</b></p><p>I admit that I&#039;ve bought into some of the marketing tricks that are used to sell these coins. I agree that the Widow&#039;s Mites could have been coins other than the Jannaeus lepta or prutot that were in circulation at that time. I think identifying the various coins with the rulers and procurators is a way of organizing them chronologically and dating them. </p><p><br /></p><p>Here&#039;s another one that might amuse you---the coin of the Wise Men---the Azes I/II drachm. These coins are packaged like this and sold as the coins that the Magi presented to Mother Mary. I&#039;m aware that a grain or two of salt is necessary to appreciate these claims but it&#039;s still a lot of fun!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]544198[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
