coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/01/2021 3:00 pm I've always seen the E Pluribus Unum on the coins, but wondered. What does that mean? Probably you always wonder also. Well I decided to to look it up: So I decided to use a coin that was not familiar to me to add the information onto. https://images.PCGS.com/CoinFacts/3...547_2200.jpg I picked the last of the commemorative series, the last one. 1936 York County half dollar. So I noticed the link mentioned the EPU was the motto of the United States. So that confused me. So I looked up information on the the motto and found this: https://www.treasury.gov/about/educ...e-trust.aspx Stuff I remembered and forgot. So I considered this source is correct. Didn't realize until I read that the motto was not on the bills, and sometimes it was. But the background helped me fill in a lot of blanks. Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/01/2021 3:25 pm I found this on the search before I started my journey: Quote: E Pluribus Unum - Latin for "out of many, one" — the motto of the U.S. I noted the tag of the motto on this and dug a bit deeper and found the above information.
