Dearest Pani Rose,

Thank you for finding and sharing this article.

I am very impressed that the Maltese? are promoting Christ in this secular environment. Their strength and corage is extremly admirable.

I only hope the coin does not become a collectible and disappears into obscurity (although I want one myself!)

Maybe Greece can do one and Italy, and Germany, etc. for all the Great Feasts?

Michael you are so kind.

I know maybe it will give other nations the courage to stand up to the EU and say Jesus IS!

If the picture on the money is not Caesar, do we have to pay our taxes?

Dear Two Lungs,

I could venture an answer to that, but I do think the revenue authorities would agree.

Here is the press release from the Maltese Central Bank.

According to my read, the baptism of Christ design is one of the four finalists in the design.

In IC XC,
Father Anthony+


Everyone baptized into Christ should pass progressively through all the stages of Christ's own life, for in baptism he receives the power so to progress, and through the commandments he can discover and learn how to accomplish such progression. - Saint Gregory of Sinai

In 1993, Ukraine printed postage stamps with a picture of Patriarch Josyf Slipyj.
