The Widow’s Mite – Ancient Biblical Coins from Jesus’ Time.

• Widow’s Mite Two Coins.

The widow placed two mites into the offering box, representing her entire livelihood. These coins might have been enough for the widow to buy a loaf of bread to eat, but she chose to offer them to God instead of feeding herself. A pair of widow’s mites can serve as a powerful reminder of the widow’s faith.
