The story surrounding these wise men is much more complex than Matthew’s gospel lays out.At the time, there were no direct accounts that just three wise men arrived. In fact, it was the gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh that spurred the legend of just three men arriving to kneel before the baby Jesus. In Eastern Christianity, the wise men are said to number 12 in total, not three.On the reverse side of each 2016 1 oz Niue Silver Approach of the Wise Men Five-Pointed Star Coins you’ll find the image of three travelers on camelback as they ride across the open desert toward the town of Bethlehem.
