The Ophel Gardens Excavation Site is producing some of the most exciting finds of the century. Piles of "garbage" that were removed from the area are now being sifted through. A coin from the second temple period (Christ's time)can remind us of the Widow's mite.
Mark 12:41-44 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.
