So all the things given would've had a monetary value, if they weren't given to the priest and sold elsewhere. It was all as good as money.

Brother, If you want to convert me, quote one verse where the Bible said money and meant animals, or an example of someone referring to a herd of money, or a flock of money. The half shekel offering was referred to as money and silver, because it was silver money. Have you ever heard of a silver dollar? A silver dollar is money and silver, and the silver half shekel was a half shekel, and it was silver.
