Ptolemaic Tyre coins in temple tax

(1/1)

Mauro Coca C:
Hello guys!


Ptolemaic shekels minted at Tire, may have been used as a temple tax?
 
Thanks.

Aarmale:
It is not impossible. Ptolemaic silver tetradrachmae have been found in hoards from the late Second Temple period, demonstrating that they were current at this time.
