135-37 B.C. Maccabean Bronze Widow's Mite F/VF Main Image

In the Book of Mark 12:41-44, Jesus tells the parable of a poor widow who gave all she had - two Mites - to the temple treasury. Her offering, probably all her worldly wealth, was more valuable in the eyes of God than great sums given by rich men. Mites, or Lepta, were thin, bronze Jewish coins adorned with fruits and grains. Graven images on coins were forbidden by Jewish law, so these coins were the only kind accepted by the temple.

Portrait of Christ A.D. 1294-1320 Andronicus II & Michael IX Silver Basilicon Main Image

As a collector of antiquities myself, I&rsquo;m excited to offer you this 700-year-old silver Basilicon for the first time in our catalogs! Hand struck between A.D. 1294-1320 during the Byzantine Empire, each nicely detailed coin features a portrait of Christ on a throne with his hand raised in benediction and holding the book of gospels. 

Two emperors are shown on the reverse &ndash; Andronicus II and Michael IX. Lasting from 1282-1328, Andronicus&rsquo; reign was marked by a reduction in land forces and an elimination of the navy. However, his sponsorship of the arts led to a cultural revival. His son, Michael IX, was known as a brave soldier with a strong moral fiber. He co-ruled alongside his father from 1295 until his death at the hands of mercenaries in 1320. 

Well-preserved for over 700 years in Very Fine or better condition, each coin is a true piece of history that&rsquo;s been certified by NGC. Opportunities like this don&rsquo;t happen often, so I urge you to order quickly to secure this relic from an age of faith. This also makes a fitting gift as the holiday season approaches.

A.D. 350-353 Decentius Bronze Bridgnorth Shropshire Hoard Coin, Two Victories Reverse Main Image

Add the rare bronze coin of Decentius to your collection! Normally we can only acquire about 10 of his coins a year and never in this quality. And even more exciting, they come from Amiens, France, a rare Roman mint. Hand struck over 1,650 years ago, each rare Centennionalis features Decentius &ndash; thought to be the brother (or relative) of Magnentius. Named Caesar in A.D. 350 or early 351, he was sent to defend Gaul against hostile German tribes while Magnentius battled Constantius II for control. The two rebels planned to unite their armies, but military actions went against them, and they took their lives a few days apart. Given his short rule, and that Constantius II withdrew the rebels&#39; coinage and replaced it after the rebellion, it&#39;s no wonder Decentius&#39; coinage is rare and difficult to find today. Don&#39;t miss your chance to own this sensational, museum-quality hoard coin &ndash; get yours right away, supplies are limited!

Called the first symbol of the Christian faith by the British Museum, the Christogram design merges the Greek letters X (Chi) and P (Rho). These are the first two Greek letters in Christ&#39;s name. First found on Constantine the Great&#39;s coinage, this symbol was used by his sons and later by Magnentius, who hoped to gather support for his campaign against Constantius II. From the Amiens Mint.
