When we look at such a coin, bearing the sensitive image of an empress who lived centuries ago, we realize that men and women have changed but little with the course of history. The essentials of human behavior--the passions, the emotions, the dreams--are eternal, surviving across time even as great empires come and go. To wear this exquisite imperial coin is to affirm a belief in the power of the human spirit to survive and flourish against all odds. - (FJ.2928)
