Shekel of Tyre: Most Sought After Years?
1 1

2 posts in this topic

Hello NGC Ancients community. I've noticed most NGC graded Shekel of Tyre coins are selling (asking price) for between $2,300 and $3,500. Which Shekel of Tyre years, though, are the most sought after by collectors, which routinely command more than $3,500 in asking price? I know some years are worth up to $20,000 in outstanding condition. What are the "top ten years" for Shekel of Tyre coins? Thank you.

These silver tetradrachm are sold at highly inflated prices because of completely unsubstantiated speculation about their payment to a disciple of Yashua ibn Yousif in exchange for Yashua's whereabouts near Jerusalem on Passover evening. There are, in my view, many more interesting and historically valuable coins of that era.
