We see it every time we use a coin but do you actually know what it means? I used to know but now I forgot. Can you tell me?

Translated from Latin, it most closely means "Out of many, (is) One." or "From many, (comes) One." Its Anglicized pronunciation is IPA: [ ˈi ˈpluɹɪbəs ˈjunəm ], Classical pronunciation IPA: [ ˈeːˈpluːribus ˈuːnum ]. It refers to the unity of the disparate states of the United States as well as (in modern times) the notion that the nation is a melting pot of peoples.
