Answer 2

Explanation:

The importance of coins as a source of history vary from period to period by location but they do always have some importance.

The first coins are from the Anatolian kingdom of Lydia in what is now Turkey. These coins are important as historical artifacts because they show the increasing sophistication of the economy and are indicative of the growing separation of classes in society.

From these early coins we can watch as other nations started minting coins, how the denominations changed and increased and how the artistic style of the images on the coins increased. This is important because it helps historians track the flow of information around the known world and tells us a lot about metallurgy and technology. Additionally finding coins from one nation across land and sea in another far away nation can tell us something about communication and trade.

By the 4th Century BCE, many empires were minting coins with the rulers’ faces and titles on them. Sometime after this the regnal years were also included. These coins allow us to confirm the historical records written elsewhere. In many cases coins have been found that allow us to clear up poorly understood dynastic problems. A few coins have even allowed us to confirm the existence of rulers that some historians speculated never existed.
