• A web site visitor asked, "Can you please tell me what the
  Shields on coins represent?" My reply (assuming he was
  referring to U.S. coins) was: "As I understand it, the shield
  represents the Union. Typically there are thirteen horizontal
  and vertical bands, representing the 13 original colonies.
  The shield also represents military strength."
  

  How'd I do? Did I get it right? Is there more to it than
  that? -Editor.
