שנתערבו. ורוצה להוציא של חולין חוץ לירושלים:
מביא בסלע מעות. של נחשת שיש עליהם צורה, ששוין סלע של כסף:
ובורר את היפה שבהן. שבשני הסלעים, ומחלל אלו המעות עליה, והסלע השני והמעות נשארים חולין:
מדוחק. כשהוא דחוק ואינו יכול לעשות בדרך אחרת:
ולא שיתקיים כן. שישאר המעות של נחושת מעשר, אלא חוזר ומחללם על הכסף. ואי קשיא ולמה מביא בסלע מעות, יקח אחד משני סלעים שנתערבו ויאמר אם זו היא של מעשר מוטב ואם לאו הרי השני שהיא של מעשר מחוללת עליה. אי שריית ליה ליקח אחת מהן ולהתנות, חיישינן דלמא אתי למשקל חד מינייהו בלא תנאי:
Mishnah 2
Mishnayos Maaser Sheni Perek 2 Mishnah 7
מעשר שני פרק ב׳ משנה ז׳
Bartenura
לא יעשה אדם סלעיו דינרי זהב – Silver Selahs that he has from Second Tithe monies, he should not make into golden denars, lest he delay their being brought up [to Jerusalem] until he can exchange his Selahs and will be interrupted from going up [to Jerusalem] for the Festival. But the School of Hillel holds that we do not make this decree.
לא יעשה אדם סלעיו דינרי זהב. סלעים של כסף שיש לו ממעשר שני לא יעשה אותם דינרי זהב, שמא ישהה עליותיו עד שיחליף סלעיו ויתבטל מלעלות לרגל. וב״ה סברי לא גזרינן:
Mishnah Yomi FAQ

Who started the Mishnah Yomi program?
In 1934, the Kozoglover Gaon, Rav Aryeh Tzvi Frommer, who took over from Rav Meir Shapiro (the founder of Daf Yomi) as the head of Yeshivas Chachmei Lublin, initiated the Mishnah Yomi cycle, focusing on Seder Zeraim and Seder Taharos. After World War II, in 1947, Rav Yonah Sztencl, a disciple of Rav Frommer, expanded the program, advocating for a comprehensive study of Shishah Sidrei Mishnah. The idea of studying two Mishnayos daily gained the support of figures like Rav Isser Zalman Meltzer, the Tchebiner Rov, and the Gerer Rebbe, marking the formal inception of Mishnah Yomi.

שנתערבו – and he wishes to remove that which is non-sacred produce outside of Jerusalem.
מביא בסלע מעות – of copper which have on them a form/shape, that are worth a silver Sela.
ובורר את היפה שבהן – that are on the two Selas, and he redeems these monies with it (i.e., the better of the two) and redeems these coins for it, and the second Sela and the rest of the monies are non-sacred.
מדוחק – when he is pressed and he cannot do it in another way.
ולא שיתקיים כן – and the copper monies should remain as [Second] Tithe, but he goes back and redeems them for silver. And if a difficulty arises and for what does he bring monies for a Sela, he should take one of the Selas that were combined and say: If this is of [Second] Tithe, it is well, and if not, the second which is of [Second] Tithe will be redeemed for it. And if one of them is permitted for him to purchase and to make a condition, we are suspicious that perhaps he will come to take one of them without a condition made on it.
