<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2372515, member: 42773&quot;]Absolutely, yes. There are many collectors who aren&#039;t particularly interested in ancient coins as a whole, but ARE interested in coins that have Biblical ties. Demand always drives prices. The &quot;30 pieces of silver&quot; are Tyrian shekels, and they sell at considerable premiums over other large silver ancients. Widows mites, the leptons of Alexander Jannaeus et al, are numerous and common - the ancient Judaeans churned them out by the millions, and they are some of the crappiest coins ever made. But you can expect to pay around $50 retail for a &quot;decent&quot; one, meaning not terribly crappy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
