Best Answer

Dug condition means that the coin was recovered using a metal detector and was dug out of the ground. These coins may have some defects due to weathering and water damage that other coins may not have, however, with silver coins the silver usually protects the coin and the details are still there, visible and crisp.

Why are 55BC roman coins so worthless?

They aren't worthless, but the vast majority of Roman coins are struck in bronze which isn't worth as much as gold or silver, many were struck for circulation and bronze deteriorates with time meaning that many of the coins are not in good condition after being dug up 2,000 some odd years later. All of these affects value.
