Answer 2

Answer:

Roman government stopped coining in silver because silver was limited.

Explanation:

Silver was extracted from silver mines and silver coins were made. These mines started getting exhausted because of excessive extraction. The stock of silver was over with the government to support the coinage system in silver. The monetary system of the Romans broke, and they stopped using silver. They started using mint gold coins for their coinage system. The salaries were given in gold and also used in buying assets like land with gold.
