Roman Widow's Mite Bronze Coin INB Slabbed

Updated August 24, 2026

Roman Widow's Mite Bronze Coin INB Slabbed Ancient Roman Widow's Mite Sized Bronze Coin INB Slabbed c. 50 BC - 400 AD Condition: This item is housed in an International Numismatic Bureau (INB) slab. The coin displays a heavily weathered and irregular triangular shape, characteristic of ancient bronze leptons or prutot that have circulated extensively. The surfaces show significant dark patina and oxidation consistent with an ancient bronze metal content. The strike is largely indistinguishable due to age and environmental wear, which is common for these small denomination coins from the Roman provincial period. The historical context refers to the "Widow's Mite," a term originating from the New Testament lesson of the poor widow who gave two small copper/bronze coins as an offering. These coins were minted throughout the Judean and Roman regions between approximately 50 BC and 400 AD to serve as the smallest unit of currency for daily transactions. The grading is not numerically specified on the holder, which identifies the piece as a bronze coin of Widow's Mite size.
