the Treasury The letter was written in November, 1861, the writer urging that we should, as Christian people. make some recognition of the Deity on our coins. Mir. Chase referred the iet- ter to Director Pollock. of the mint. who approved the suggestion, and proposed one of the legends, Our Country, Our God" or God Our Trust MT. Chase then referred the matter to Congress, and again In 1882 and 1883 he urged that the matter be acted on. Finally, on April 22. 1864, Congress authorized the coinage of 2-cent bronze piece, and on 1t was stamped the legend. Tn God We Trust instead of "E Pluribus Unum." Subsequently, on March 3. 1885. the Director of the Mint, with the approval of the Secretary of the Treasury. was authorized to place the legend bn all gold and silver coins susceptible of that addition thereafter to be issued. The1egend is taken from the following line in. The star Span gled Banner: And this be our motto In God is our trust"
