Prutah
Prutah - The prutah is an ancient biblical coin that was used many, many years ago. The prutah, a Hebrew word, appears in the Mishna and the Talmud. The prutah where minted by the Jewish kings and are found in various forms. Each ruler minted a different version of the prutah in commemoration of their reign. During the roman occupation the roman overlords also minted their versions of the prutah. The prutah was the most commonly minted Jewish coin.

Shekels
Shekels - The history of shekels is very interesting. Tyrian shekels where used by the Jews for payment of the temple tax. The Tyrian shekels came into being when the Tyrian rulers began to mint their own silver coinage that we know of today as the silver shekels of Tyre. The Tyrian shekels where considered one of the most stable currencies of their time period because Tyrian shekels where of consistent weight, Tyrian shekels where of consistent purity and Tyrian shekels where of consistent design. Tyrian shekels remained this way for approximately 106 years. After 19 B.C.E it is believed by many that the minting of Tyrian shekels was started by the Jews to continue the temple tax. The Shekels of Tyre are the same type of coins that were paid to Judas as the 30 pieces of silver. A interesting bit of shekels lore is that Four shekels (with the face and eagle image) are Shekels of Tyre and all of them have a natural earthly patina. When it comes to shekels we are very studious in picking only the best to represent our shekels collection. As you will note the Jewish Revolt Shekels that are pictured on our website are in excellent condition as far as shekels can be considered. Our shekels collection has made a long journey through time and history before they even made it into our possession. The history of the shekels collection here is that they were minted by Israel when the nation was no longer under the Roman rule. Another unique bit of shekels history is that shekels were the first truly Jewish coin minted with Jewish images. Here at biblicalmites.com we take the science of shekels collecting and other ancient artifacts and turn it into a pastime filled with history, knowledge, lore, and beauty.
