Message:: [QUOTE="Judy Acs, post: 452937, member: 16061"]You've all been busy with the numerology thing!  Thank you! Actually, I believe it was Handsome Toad's discovery of a previous coin selling at a German auction.  I did some further research, after translating the auction entry, and believe the coin may have Kabbalistic symbolism.   <img src="http://www.prs.org/images/linart/msepquab.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />   The Sephirothic Tree of the later Kabbalists Translated from Kircher’s OEdipus AEgyptiacus The Kabbalists divided the universe into four worlds, each consisting of ten spheres, arranged into what is called the "Sephirothic Tree." This Tree is composed of ten circles, representing the numbers 1 to 10, connected together by twenty-two canals—the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet. The ten numbers plus the twenty-two letters result in the occult number 32, which, according to the Mishna, signifies the Thirty-two Paths of Wisdom. Now, to try to figure out what all the numbers, and permutations of numbers and letters, all refers to! Judy[/QUOTE]
