Three Golden Balls: one of the most recognizable symbols in the world. It is used by pawnbrokers all over the globe to identify their businesses. But where did the pawn symbol come from?
The most recognized origin story is that it is derived from the three bags of gold that Saint Nicholas is said to have given to a poor man to help his daughters get married.
Saint Nicholas was a wealthy bishop who lived in the 4th century. He was known for his generosity and his kindness to the poor.
According to legend, Saint Nicholas was walking through a town when he saw a poor man sitting on a bench, crying. The man could not afford to give his daughters dowries for their weddings, so they were not able to get married. This caused the man tremendous grief.
Saint Nicholas decided to help the man. He secretly dropped three bags of gold coins down the man’s chimney. The man was overjoyed and was able to give his daughters the dowries they needed.
The three bags of coins came to represent Saint Nicholas’s generosity and willingness to help those in need. Over time, they became the symbol of pawn stores, which provide financial assistance to people in need.
In addition to being the patron saint of pawnbrokers, Saint Nicholas is also the patron saint of many other groups, including sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, brewers, unmarried people, and students. He is also known as Santa Claus and is celebrated on December 6th in many countries around the world.
Psst. Remember what else is celebrated on December 6th? Yep- National Pawnbroker Day!
Today, the pawn symbol is used by pawnbrokers all over the world to identify their businesses.
The three golden balls have become an iconic symbol of the pawn industry; a symbol of hope for people who need to borrow money quickly and easily, and a symbol of trust, as pawnbrokers are entrusted with valuable items by their customers.
