Answer:
Coins are the emblem of a particular age and by reading the time period embossed on the coin we can get to know about the king, about the metal used that time, and we also can get to know about the issuing states. These coins throw light on religious, political, economic and commercial conditions, which are best understood and deciphered by historians.
