Comment from : Discovering History

Excellent video Leo I am convinced that the very first coins were privately minted; in which case it must have been the jewellers the very first to mint coins They had the knowledge, technology (precision scales) and the interest to produce them; later the State (king, city, etc) took over the invention, just as it happened with paper-money

Very interesting! I am actually surprised why older civilizations didnt get to invent coinage sooner, such as the egyptians
Comment from : Isabel

I wish there were more of these and they were cheaper My oldest is probably a Carradice Type 3 Persian Siglos Or a fractional piece from Miletos with a lion and an incuse With coins that old there is a lot of overlap making it hard to say which is older
Comment from : Mark Petersen

The oldest coins I have are romans and some coins from Afghanistan of the greeks after Alexander the Great death I have to study the later ones to see to who they belonged (different kings) and try to date them (I bought them when I worked in India)
