The question of fiat currency has already been covered in post #35. Some readers use text-to-speech (probably they can't read) and miss out on the hyperlinks or numerical charts. The charts wouldn't mean much for someone who can't count of course, even so in my earlier example from 520BC in verse 12c it was made clear that the units employed were units of weight.

So they weighed for my price thirty pieces of silver.

Now metal tokens can be used a fiat currency. In some cases it's turned out that the value of the metal was more than the value of the token. Gold sovereigns would be an example of that. You can still probably use them on a bus but they're only worth £1 towards your bus fare. If this is not part of your theonomics syllabus it's definitely something you need to add.

A minor detail, since the penalties or values in question come from a period when shekels were tied to a bimetallic standard, the value of a fiat shekel is irrelevant. God was also clear that the same weights should be used for all transactions, whether buying or selling. Theonomics would also include a discussion about Temple standards, whether they were exempt from standard metrology and if so, why.
