<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ErolGarip, post: 2846839, member: 88736&quot;]For newcomers to this thread, let me summarize this thread. </p><p><br /></p><p>1. Numerals (numbers/marks/face values) on the coins are less and less when going back to the history, till 700BC, the date of known first coin, Lydian coin. However, there are numerals such as &quot;IIII&quot; incised on 9,000 years old &quot;stone coins&quot; which are called &quot;counting tokens&quot; by an Arcaeological prof (whose weblink is given in the thread.)</p><p><br /></p><p>2. Numerals on the coins throughout the history (except 9,000 years old stone coins) have been shadowed by political/etc figures on the coins. </p><p><br /></p><p>3. By &quot;shadowing&quot; numerals, mathematics in/of the coins have also been shadowed, have become insignificant, hence, lots of confusions in money/coin, countability, unit, etc. </p><p><br /></p><p>4. First time here in the history, coin&amp;mathematics is questioned&amp;studied here in the detail. (also contributed by a math prof, via an email, given in the thread.) </p><p><br /></p><p>5. Conclusion of coin&amp;math study is 1cent coin (and equivalents&nbsp; 1penny/1agora/1kurus/1kopik/1yen/etc) is Constant... This is Local universality, valid in whole World... </p><p><br /></p><p>6. This property, &quot;constancy&quot; of 1cent, is also shown in coin&amp;economy and conclusion in that is 1cent should exist, but, can&#039;t/shouldn&#039;t be circulated. Circulation/flooding of one cent coin in some places, eg in the US and no minting at all in many places now that are over-engineering or under-engineering is a historical error... </p><p><br /></p><p>7. How a coin should exist and should not circulate? Only way is to keep one cent coin in the pocket. This conforms the logic, mathematically and practically. </p><p><br /></p><p>8. Coin&amp;linguistics is also studied, by questioning &quot;how much money or how many money&quot; deeply following &quot;un/countability of money&quot; (this discussion was mostly on a linguistics forum, its link also given in this thread.) </p><p><br /></p><p>9. The most important thing related to 1cent coin here is its relation to the &quot;Work Safety&quot; which is also mentioned in this thread. However, without telling much about it, as it was urgent, &quot;work safety&quot; is mentioned here just by recommending people at works, especially at risky works, to keep one cent coin always in their pockets, without giving it into the circulation that won&#039;t&nbsp; work for 1cent coin anyway. </p><p><br /></p><p>10. In coming days (after Hurricane Irma), how keeping one cent coin always in the pocket can be useful in the &quot;work safety&quot; will be explained. Anyway, for people at heavy risky works such as electricity works, carrying small one cent coin always in the pocket can not be heavy, it is heavy for lazy people, heavy for their minds.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
