    True, all ancients were found in the ground/tomb :D.

    Not exactly. Many ancient coins were collected while in circulation and handed down through the generations. We have various bits of evidence that suggest that ancient peoples were just as fond of collecting coins as we are today. Many of them likely never saw the ground.

    And to my understanding, many ancient peoples hoarded their coins and placed them in jars before burying them.
