A shekel is an ancient unit of weight. One of the problems with ancient units of anything is that they were notoriously non-standard with respect to region and time period; a shekel could have been anything from about 9 to about 17 grams of gold depending on when and where it was.
So pick something in that range, then multiply by 50 and by the current spot price of gold per gram.
The value of 6000 shekels of gold would depend on the current market price of gold. As of [current date], the price of gold is [current price] per gram. To determine the total value, you would need to convert the weight of 6000 shekels into grams and then multiply that by the current price per gram of gold. This calculation will give you the total worth of 6000 shekels of gold.
