If the original shekel is used, Goliath's armour (5000 shekels) weighs a little over 90 lbs.
As of December 2011, the current exchange value of 200 Israeli Shekels is $52.97.
The value of 5000 shekels of brass would depend on the current market price of brass per shekel. You would need to multiply the number of shekels by the per-shekel price of brass to determine the total value.
5000
how much is the old shekels worth with ben gurion on it
72 Israeli shekels right for 21/10/11 from google But its mostly 3 or 4 shekels=1$
106 shekels is equal to about $31.22 United States dollars.
$26.04
50 shekels are equivalent to 550 grams or 19.4 ounces. One ounce of silver cost $20.13 so 50 shekels would be worth $390.50.
$ 48.1026

Well right now (may 2011) 4 shekels are about one dollar i think but an old shekel would be about 3 shekels-- one dollar. Glad to be of help!
