The answer is '3. shells.'

  • In the earlier societies of Europe, around the 14th century, shells were used in Europe as a form of currency to buy and sell commodities. It was used as the present day money is used.
  • Stones and pebbles were not used as currency since they were heavy to carry around and were present in different shapes and sizes. Thus, they could not be used to measure the value of a particular commodity.
  • Salt is very difficult to carry. It might spill and be ruined. Thus, it was not used as currency. However, salt was used as a protection against evil.
  • At that point in time, shells were also used as currency in various parts of the world, like Africa, Asia, Oceania, and so on.
