Question

I separated terumot and maasrot on a half-shekel coin. What should I do with the coin now?

Answer

Dear Sir,

The terumot [teruma gedola and terumat maaser] are not redeemed on a coin. Only the maaser sheni is redeemed on a coin. Similarly, revai fruits are redeemed.

The coin should be destroyed or buried in a place where it will not be used.
