In the 21st century, digital payments have become an essential part of the global economy. About 500 years ago, things were different. With the growing Spanish colonial empire, the Silver Dollar emerged as the first international currency. Even today, many coin motifs and currency names trace back to the Spanish 8 reales coin. However, silver was already indispensable for minting coins in ancient times. For example, it was used by Egyptians, Greeks and Romans. Today, the precious raw material is still of numismatic importance. This folder includes ten silver coins of different countries, from the USA to France and the Russian Empire to Australia. They can be inserted into the appropriate recesses and removed again for viewing.
