The first cast coins
Chinese coins
The use of rapidly growing money along with the development of nations, has the task of managing excess wealth created by the exploitation of slaves, serfs or farmers, and the exchange between regions apart from each other as well as the plundering of the neighboring peoples.
In many goods used as ancient society currencies (textiles and cocoa beans in the Mayan and Aztec Kingdoms, money and gold snails of the West African Kingdoms, the ingot of Hitite, barley and wheat in Mesopotamia, wheat and copper in Egypt, millet and silk in China), casting currency is a particularly remarkable type because it continues to be used today.
Initially, coinage is just a form of coins. In China, before the mint of circulation, and even after the coinage appeared at the end of the fourth century BC, the shell-shaped objects and the knife were used as money.The first minted coins were cast in the 7th century BC in Asia Minor and in Greece, where some cities until then used metal ingots to make money. Small squares of thin, thin pieces of silver, followed by different motifs, were used in India around the same time and until the day of the introduction of money in the fourth century BC.
