I have heard it means money!.

also it is a symbol of the complexity and simplicity of life!.

you have heard that there are two sides to a coin!?
that's what I mean, that opposites complete each other and are related!.!.!.so it takes both pos and neg to make a complete whole!.

Legend of the Sand Dollar

THERE'S A PRETTY LITTLE LEGEND

THAT I WOULD LIKE TO TELL

OF THE BIRTH AND DEATH OF JESUS

FOUND IN THIS LOWLY SHELL

IF YOU EXAMINE CLOSELY

YOU'LL SEE THAT YOU FIND HERE

FOUR NAIL HOLES AND A FIFTH ONE

MADE BY A ROMAN'S SPEAR

ON ONE SIDE THE EASTER LILY

ITS CENTER IS THE STAR

THAT APPEARED UNTO THE SHEPHERDS

AND LED THEM FROM AFAR

THE CHRISTMAS POINSETTIA

ETCHED ON THE OTHER SIDE

REMINDS US OF HIS BIRTHDAY

OUR HAPPY CHRISTMASTIDE

NOW BREAK THE CENTER OPEN

AND HERE YOU WILL RELEASE

THE FIVE WHITE DOVES AWAITING

TO SPREAD GOOD WILL AND PEACE

THIS SIMPLE LITTLE SYMBOL

CHRIST LEFT FOR YOU AND ME

TO HELP US SPREAD HIS GOSPEL

THROUGH ALL ETERNITY

Sorry about all the caps, but I didn't want to fix the cut & paste!. I remembered seeing postcards with this on the coast!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Doesn't symbolize anything----a sand dollar is a living, breathing organism on this planet (of the sea variety) I happen to think they are very pretty!!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
