History
The design of this coin is rooted in the Tyrian shekel, historically significant coins minted in Tyre. During the Roman Empire, these coins were widely used, including for the Temple Tax and, notably, in biblical stories such as the payment received by Judas for betraying Jesus. Even after the Roman mint in Tyre ceased operations, rabbis continued to strike these coins in Judaea.
