Article says shekel is 11.07 grams
Wikipedia says is 11.42 grams.
So did a shekel get heavier over time?

...So did a shekel get heavier over time? Even back then they had inflation. Coins would be minted with less silver in them as time went on. Kind of like how pennies went from copper to copper coated zinc.
