you can buy roman coins on ebay that date back 2000 years.

now think about this - the population of that time wasnt' huge - maybe a million or two in the medetraiian area. - narrow that to coins bought in Isreal and it's much lower population.

Ok - that being said there and knowing that Jesus traveled the land and talk to and phycially TOUCHED thousands of people there is a VERY good chance that the person who touched that roman coin Touched JESUS CHRIST in person - and almost a certainty that a person who touched that coin touched someone who touched JESUS Christ in person.


I'm not a JEsus nut, but one cannot deny that Jesus is one of the most influential huans that ever lived.


You pretty much summed up the exact reason why I love old coins.




I'm sure a very similar allure goes with the ligher collections. Who made them? Who used them? What were the times and location like where it traveled....


I remember back in school I never thought myself much of a history fan, until I recently discovered how much I enjoy odd things like this and of course my occasional binges of the history channel when they have some good segments on.
