Exodus 30:13
This they shall give, every one that passeth among them that are numbered, half a shekel after the {h} shekel of the sanctuary: (a shekel [is] twenty gerahs:) an half shekel [shall be] the offering of the LORD. (h) This shekel was worth two common shekels: and the gerah about 12 pence at a rate of five shillings sterling to an ounce of silver.
