    Greatest invocation ever. The power on gold, not of it.

    King James version. Except for one word, technically.

    Very Very cool! Where did you get it? I would have been a bidder on ebay if I saw it. Can you post a picture of it next to a dime or quarter? I own a lot of these coins, but cannot imagine how small the text must be!!

    I'll see what I can do about getting a comparison picture. But in the mean time, here are some diameter comparisons.



    This $1 gold piece Type 3 (Minted from 1856-1889): 15mm

    Three Cent silver piece: 14mm

    Clad Dime: 17.9mm
