Used for Temple tax payments in Jerusalem due to its high silver purity, making it one of the most significant coins of the Biblical era. Features the classic Melqart portrait and eagle reverse, preserved in a discontinued PCGS holder from the brief period PCGS authenticated ancient coins. A true historical artifact with direct ties to the time of Christ — rarely offered in this format. ***Personal Collection Piece, Not For Sale***
