It always surprises me at how early they were making silver coins, and with a fairly decent amount of detail for the times. Its a great looking coin @ronaldoavelino!

I know about silver coins from 700BC. They were cruder than this, but you can identify all the elements on these coins. The above coin, 400-500 years later, is half the size of a dime and it was made by hand. Amazing!
