Widow's mite: A unique gift card from ancient Israel
"And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much.
And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing.
And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury:
For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living."
Mark 12:41-44
You know the story of the widow's mite from the Bible. But did you know that you can own one or more of these bronze coins from ancient Israel, circa 135 BC to 29 AD?
On a WND trip to the Holy Land, WND cofounder Elizabeth Farah met with Lenny Wolfe, a highly respected adventurer and antiquities dealer who has collected a treasure trove of these ancient coins. Some come mounted in sterling silver castings --å perfect for a silver chain necklace or as an addition to a charm bracelet.
But, as supplies last, we also offer these smaller ancient coins mounted on a gift card. Makes a great stocking stuffer and meaningful gift for that special person who deserves something more than a Hallmark card. There's true value here, as the certificate of authenticity shows, and spiritual significance.
Each card comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by the distinguished Israeli antiquities dealer Lenny Wolfe, and are individually wrapped in a velvet pouch and gift box.
Disclaimer: Each product is unique from antiquity, and may age differently. There is no guarantee on the particular tone of the coin received.
