Where do Roman Coins come from?
They come from Europe. There were no banks during Roman times. People would hoard their money and bury it in the ground or hide it in caves. They would then go off to battle, or forget where they put it, or get killed on the road by thieves for not having any money on them. The coins sat there for hundreds of years until they were then found, divided up, and sold to coin dealers…like me.
