ומי אזלינן בתר בתרא והא תניא ר' יוסי בר יהודה אומר תיבה שנשתמשו בה מעות חולין ומעות מעשר אם רוב חולין חולין אם רוב מעשר מעשר ואמאי ליזיל בתר בתרא
R'Papa said: E.g. , if it was found in a pit.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' We cannot assume that the earlier coins had been removed while these were of the most recent deposit, because it might have been overlooked in a pit.');"><sup>21</sup></span> of peace-offerings; when one could not stay long enough in Jerusalem to expend all his tithe money, he would distribute it among the poor or give it to his friends in Jerusalem. Consequently, if money is found in front of cattle dealers, whatever the time of the year, it is assumed to be of the second tithe.
Tosefta Shekalim (Lieberman)
Coins found in front of the Cattle Traders are always counted as [Second] Tithes. [Coins] found on the Temple Mount are considered profane [Similarly, coins found] in Jerusalem on the other days of the year are considered profane, but on the day of a pilgrimage festival all are considered as a [second] tithe. R. Jose said: [These are] words of the school of Shammai The school of Hillel says They are always considered tithes, except for the [coins] found on the Temple Mount on the remaining days of the year, [which are] profane.
