<p>[QUOTE=&quot;KLJ, post: 114506, member: 1910&quot;]Maundy Thursday is the Thursday before Easter.&nbsp; It&#039;s the day that Christ held the Last Supper with his disciples.&nbsp; At that gathering, Jesus also washed the feet of his disciples as a way of showing his disciples that no work, however gross it might be, was beyond the bounds of our call to the service of others. </p><p><br /></p><p>Originally, on Maundy Thursday, the monarchs washed the feet of &quot;little people&quot; to signify that they too were humble like Christ.&nbsp; But, as sylvester points out, those &quot;little people&quot; could be rather unpleasant in the cleanliness department.&nbsp; So the tradition developed that the monarch would give them money instead.&nbsp; And here we are today, discussing the traditions, mintages, and values of that money.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
