Best Answer
Egypt started out with a 'barter' economy, exchanging goods that they had for goods that they wanted. Gradually, barter was replaced by paying with items of value which often were gold or silver but not yet in the form of coins. Their weight or size determined the value of your payment.
Around 500BC Egyptians started using (silver and copper) coins.
