Bekhorot 49: three things to remember

1. Paying redemption money early fails if the priest spends it before day thirty-one, following Shmuel over Rav.
2. A father who never redeemed himself must redeem himself before his son, since one's own mitzvah always takes precedence.
3. Biblical penalties and redemption require high-grade Tyrian silver, payable in equivalent goods, but the annual half-shekel requires actual coins.
