Currency The Hittites trade solely in silver. As such, foreign currency in bronze and gold is of no use to them. The silver pieces of currency are in the form of 'pieces' (flat and thin ovals similar to coins), 'rings' (thick hoops of silver that can be worn on a grown male's thumb) and 'bars' (trapezoid bars of silver about ten inches long and three wide). The 'pieces' are called shekels. Rings and bars have no specific name besides their value in shekel pieces.
