Let's Learn About Coins!

We live in the United States of America. These are the coins we use for money here.
This is a penny. It is worth one cent in US money.
This is a nickel. It is worth five cents.
This is a dime. It is worth ten cents.
This is a quarter. It is worth twenty five cents.

The word coin in English means, "a piece of metal money".
There are three things written on every United States coin, one is the phrase
"In God We Trust", another is the phrase, "E Pluribus Unum", and the last is
the word "Liberty". The word Liberty means "freedom" and it is used
on our coins to let people know that this is a free country.
The words, "In God We Trust" are very important because the men who
founded The United States Of America believed and trusted in God, and
they knew that only He could give us true liberty.
