There is a lot to admire about this coin: it's heavy weight of copper, the high relief, the toothbrush and shaving cream in the two-headed bird's talons, the Russian letters on the banner. This design inspired the American Eagle with the arrows and olive branch and the flowing banners on US currency.
My favorite thing is the back: I don't have many coins from the 18th century, but this is one of them. In big numbers, on the left is "17" and on the right "69" recording that this coin was minted 255 years ago. That's at least six (or more) generations ago.
Do you have any coins from the 18th century?

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.
Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.
