Here is my Shekel of Tyre - an example of one of the 30 pieces of silver used to pay off Judas.

Nice coin, it was actually 30 pieces of silver. Every year every Jew had to pay a temple tax of 1/2 Shekel. The temple would only except payment in Tyre silver half and whole shekels. So Judas was paid the equivalent of the temple tax for 60 people to betray Jesus.
