<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 2669120, member: 76086&quot;]In addition to what [USER=76194]@Sallent[/USER] says about ancient coins:&nbsp; What constitutes a coin and what is money is hotly debated.&nbsp; Many say coins were invented in ancient Lydia, but others will say ancient China, where the use of &#039;money&#039; pre-dates anything in use by the west.&nbsp; The image below illustrates various types which were used as money, but many may not say they were coins.&nbsp; To each their own.&nbsp; But, to the original topic, no, I dont consider the OP items as being coins really.&nbsp; They are created and marketed to the numismatic community and not intended to circulate, so they are not coins or money really.&nbsp; Just a novelty item.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]593877[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
