Lot #/Los-Nr.: a30753 :רפסמ טול Open.Bid/Anf.Geb. : $20 : יתלחתה ריחמ

Israel: miniature prayer amulet/token with acronyms of "Shma Yisrael" and "Shiviti Adonai" on obv., above and below Star of David; on rev. a Menorah
whose 7 arm-tips bear initials of prayer names (or psalm names?) and the branches themselves are composed of acronyms of those pieces; copyrighted Rabbi

Lot #/Los-Nr.: a30754 :רפסמ טול Open.Bid/Anf.Geb. : $20 : יתלחתה ריחמ

US: Christian(?) prayer tallion with the Priestly blessing (Cohen's blessing) with image of two lions holding up the Tablets with legend "Keep Holy the Ten
Commandments"; size: 28.75 x 33.5mm; weight: 7.35g. The Cohen's blessing exists in Christian liturgy as the "Priestly blessing": based on it's wording and the emphasis
specifically on upholding the 10 commandments (and not referring to the whole 613 / Torah), this is most probably a Christian prayer tallion.

Lot #/Los-Nr.: a30755 :רפסמ טול Open.Bid/Anf.Geb. : $20 : יתלחתה ריחמ

US: Jewish charity / Good luck token with legend "Guard the Children of the Poor?" around Menorah device and Star of David with Tablets in center on
reverse; size: 31.75mm; weight: 8.65g. In Jewish tradition the poorer the person the more pious and devoted to the Torah he is likely to be - therefore being an
ideal candidate to be a future scholar of the Torah.
