Archaeologists make a Remarkable Discovery

Показать описание

In 2018, during the excavations at what is believed to have been a 15th century samurai residence - buried at almost 2 meters below the ground, was a jar of over 200,000 Bronze Coins. It's thought that the jar may have been buried by a Samurai during a troubled period in Japan's history!

They used to be strung on rope.. you can see that they're still lined up in stacks

That pot was on it's way to Oak Island but never made it to the dock.

Imagine if the ancients found a stack of 216’000 1 dollar american bills “ oh look “ ancient money literally worth the paper it was made from and not 216000 dollars the invaluable concept of value such an oxymoron

That are Chinese’s currencies, which has around 1000 years history. How they were found that location? Interesting

Okay, I’ll ask. How much is it worth in today’s currency?

This is an ancient Chinese coin with a hole in the middle. The circulation of ancient Chinese coins in East Asia is equivalent to the current US dollar。Five Zhu copper coins
