>What were these other times and what was forgotten? "In God We Trust" wasn't the motto until the 1950s...

The motto "In God We Trust" was added to coins in the 1860s, with the last one updated in 1866.

The motto was added to paper money in 1957.

Answer:

The coins are issued to commemorate the tutankhamun exhibition in london 2007.
"return" refers to the return of the treasures of tutankhamun not been displayed in a london museum since the time of howard carter.

Excellent. Religious claims have no place on state money. It is now time to return to traditional American values that created this great country, and it's not the slate of crazed evangelists who continuously shame us and embarrass themselves.

I have found a coin that duplicates the rare
coin above but has copy above the obverse circle of stars. Otherwise, it matches exactly. What can one make of this? Its a great job of coinage but copy throws it into
another not so valuable class, I'm certain.
Need some feedback. After finding just tossed it aside as fake, but now -wonder??
Appreciate any help!

Hello there,

Its has been my hobby since I was a young boy to collect rare coins. Although, I never went into coin business, and sole purpose, of collecting rare coins is their historical background on each coin.

I love the dollar coin. The bill only gets dirty and grose and bent. The coin is so convenient and is almost the same size as a quarter. If only parking meeters took them. As a bank teller, there has been a huge jump in the number of requests on the coins. But hopefully soon they will be a part of everyday transactions. I try to hand out at least one per transaction.

I think you need to make a slight change to your headline. Specifically, you should remove that first dollar sign. If $784 million in U.S. banknotes were printed, they would be worth $784 million, not $13.5 billion. However, I can see where 784 million banknotes could be worth $13.5 billion total.

Yes, I remember during my high school lesson on Values Education that Jewish were asked to give away half a shekel just to build their temple. There is no exempted in giving a half a shekel. And the icons encrypted in the coins are the Jewish gods. That's way during the time of Jesus, He emphasizes not to worship on other gods but to only One God, His father.

Everyone knows the value of the US Dollar is going down - the only thing that keeps its value is metals - In the early 1900's and ounce of Gold bought a real nice suit - Gold then was around $20 an ounce. Today that same Ounce of Gold Will buy a real nice suit but that $20 would maybe get you a nice tie.

To fight off inflation everyone should be purchasing Gold and Silver in some form - Gold Coins - Silver Coins or bullion / bars

If this coin was like the "Melqart is a Jewish god equivalent to the Semitic one, called Baal" would not that point to the first temple. By Jesus time the Jews had more or less learn their lesson about worshipping foreign gods.

Hi there
my father owns a Coin/Medallion of what seems to be from a Roman background.
on the one side of the coin is a face and next to it is a small image of the star sign Capricorn. on the edge of the coin, above the face is the word: DIVVS AVGVSTVS (I take it that the V's are U's.
Then on the other side of the coin is an image of a emperess or emperer sitting and three servants standing. on the edge of the image around the top of the image are the words: VOTA BIS MILLESIMA FELICITER and right at the bottom of the coin, directly underneith the image are the words: VICTORIO.EMAN.III.REGE.IMP.
BENITO.MVSSOLINI.DVCE
A.X.V.A.F.R
(I take it the V's are U's again). if anyone can help to give me more infomation, please email beebuzz@webmail.co.za
kind thanks

Ancient Roman Coins of the Roman Emperor Titus ,

You're right with the fact that the coin's significance is not linked with religion but nly in its rareness. And please read the article carefully, it says about a coin that was found in a drainage channel - then read that the chabel was built during the period of the second temple (this is not about the coin here), and then it says that the temple stood during the times of Jesus (it doesn't say that coin has something to do with God, Christ and so on, it tells only about the period that was centuries ago).

Ummm.. what? What in god's name does this have to do with whether Jesus walked on the earth... and believe it or not, most archaeologists believe he was a real person of one sort or another.

This is a silver shekel and its value lies in its archaeological significance, not any imaginary religious significance.

It is not being suggested this was Jesus' own personal shekel... Christ I can't believe I just said that.
