Description

Explore the historical connection between religion and money in this scholarly work by Routledge. The Thirty Pieces of Silver: Coin Relics in Medieval and Modern Europe examines the profound impact of the most famous monetary transaction in history: the betrayal of Jesus by Judas for thirty pieces of silver. This book investigates medieval legends suggesting these coins existed since the time of Abraham's father and appeared in various biblical transactions. Through detailed documentation, the text tracks fifty specific coin specimens that were venerated as holy relics. These relics can be found in churches and monasteries across Europe, spanning a wide geographic range from Valencia to Uppsala. Whether you are interested in medieval history, religious studies, or numismatics, this book provides a deep look at how physical currency became objects of spiritual devotion. It offers a unique perspective on how coins functioned as both economic tools and sacred objects throughout the Middle Ages and into the modern era.
