Modern mints draw on this rich history, often incorporating historic designs into contemporary bullion coins.

The design of this coin is rooted in the Tyrian shekel, historically significant coins minted in Tyre. During the Roman Empire, these coins were widely used, including for the Temple Tax and, famously, in biblical narratives such as the payment received by Judas for betraying Jesus. Even after the Roman mint in Tyre ceased operations, these coins continued to be struck by rabbis in Judaea.

On the obverse of the 2024 1 oz St. Helena Shekel of Tyre Replica Coin, King Charles III is depicted in left-profile relief, intricately designed by Glyn Davies. Surrounding the effigy are distinguishing marks of the coin.

The reverse side of this 2024 St. Helena Silver Shekel of Tyre Replica Coin showcases an eagle in left-profile relief perched on a branch, a design that pays homage to the renowned Shekel of Tyre.
